Instructions

1. Place a piece of plastic wrap over a chicken breast and pound out lightly until you have an even thickness, about 1/4 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. You can also use our Famous Flat Chicken Recipe!)
2. Mix the breadcrumbs together with the parmesan cheese in a shallow bowl. Add the flour to another shallow bowl. Beat the eggs together with 1 tablespoon of water in a third shallow bowl.
3. Dip a chicken breast into the flour, tapping off the excess. Now dip into the eggs, coating the chicken breast completely, then letting the excess egg drip off. Finally, place the chicken into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing into the chicken breast to coat completely. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
4. Pour a thin layer of oil into a skillet large enough to hold the chicken breasts. When the oil is warm, add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Remove the chicken to a paper towel lined plate to let any excess oil drip off.
5. Preheat the broiler or the oven to 450 degrees. Place the chicken cutlets on a baking sheet. Add about 2-3 tablespoons of marinara sauce to the top of each cutlet. This will depend on how big your cutlets are, but don’t add too much sauce at this point, you can add more when serving. Top with 2-3 slices of mozzarella cheese on each cutlet and place under the broiler until the cheese is melted and slightly browned.
6. Serve over a bed of spaghetti tossed with more sauce, or spoon warm sauce on a plate with the chicken cutlets on top.
