Instructions

  • Heat the oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a rimmed baking pan with parchment.
  • Press both sides of each chicken cutlet firmly into the Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs.
  • Arrange the breaded cutlets on the pan and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Turn the cutlets, spoon marinara sauce over each one, and top with mozzarella and Parmesan.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes more, until the cheese is melted and the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Rest the chicken for 3 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use evenly thin cutlets so all four portions finish cooking at the same time.
