Mouth Watering Chicken Parmesan with Garlic Bread

1Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

2Prepare the chicken breasts by pounding them to an even thickness.

3In three separate shallow bowls, place flour in one, beaten eggs (2 large) in another, and a mixture of breadcrumbs (1 cup) and grated Parmesan cheese (1 cup) in the third.

4Dip each chicken breast in the flour, then the beaten eggs (2 large), and finally the breadcrumb mixture, coating evenly.

5Heat olive oil (½ cup) in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken breasts until golden and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side.

6In a small saucepan, heat marinara sauce (2 cups) until warm.

7Pour 1 cup of marinara sauce (2 cups) into a baking dish. Place the cooked chicken breasts on top of the sauce.

8Top each chicken breast with more marinara sauce (2 cups) and sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese (1 cup) over them.

9Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

10While the chicken is baking, prepare the garlic (4 cloves) bread. In a small bowl, combine softened butter (½ cup), minced garlic (4 cloves), and chopped parsley.

11Spread the garlic (4 cloves) butter (½ cup) mixture on each slice of bread and place them on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven until golden and crisp, about 10 minutes.

12Serve the mouth-watering chicken parmesan with the garlic (4 cloves) bread on the side. Garnish with fresh parsley (¼ cup) if desired.
