03 Method

Step 1

Gather the ingredients.
Step 2

Preheat the oven to 400 ºF. Split the chicken breasts with a chef’s knife. Be careful not to cut all the way through.
Step 3

Stuff the center with a 1/4 cup of the shredded mozzarella.
Step 4

Fold the top half of the chicken over the top of the mozzarella stuffing. If it is too full and the edges don’t seal, take a little of the mozzarella cheese out.
Step 5

Prepare your breading station. Toss some of the salt and pepper with the flour in a shallow bowl. Beat the eggs with a little salt and pepper in another shallow bowl. Toss the breadcrumbs with salt and pepper and Parmesan cheese in a third shallow bowl.
Step 6

Dip the stuffed chicken breast into the flour, then flip to coat both sides in the flour mixture.
Step 7

Dip the flour coated chicken into the egg mixture. Flip to coat both sides.
Step 8

Dip the egg coated chicken into the breadcrumbs and cover both sides thickly.
Step 9

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the chicken cutlets so that they fit snugly. but aren’t overlapping. If you need to do it in two pans, you can. Fry on both sides until golden brown. They do not have to be cooked through.
Step 10

Add the marinara sauce around the outside of the cutlets and a little on the top of each cutlet.
Step 11

Top the cutlets with a few slices of fresh mozzarella.
Step 12

Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until the center reads 165 ºF.
Step 13

Serve the hot chicken with chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese on top of pasta with extra marinara sauce if you wish.
