Ingredients:

5 - 6 Boneless skinless chicken breasts (thin sliced)

2-4 cups Italian bread crumbs

2 Eggs

1 tbsp milk (or water)

Instructions:

1. Clean the chicken under running water and pat dry with a paper towel.

2. Beat eggs and milk together until well combined.

4.Place oil in a pan and set to medium high heat.

5. Place chicken in the oil (once it's hot) and brown chicken on both sides.  About 6-7 minutes per side.

7. In a baking dish, pour about 1/2 - 1 cup of the marinara at the bottom of the baking dish and spread it out with a spoon.

8. Place chicken on top.

9. Spoon about 2 tbsp of remaining marinara on each chicken breast.

10. Place a generous amount of the mozzarella cheese on top of each chicken breast.

11. Sprinkle with parsley flakes (for some color).

12. Place in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is completely melted.

13. Serve and enjoy!
