To make chicken parmesan, you will need the following ingredients:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
-
Salt and pepper
-
1 cup all-purpose flour
-
2 large eggs
-
1 tablespoon water
-
1 cup breadcrumbs
-
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
-

Here are the steps to make chicken parmesan:
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
-
Set up 3 shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs and water, and one with a mixture of breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.
-
Coat each chicken breast in the flour, then dip into the egg mixture, and finally coat with the breadcrumb and Parmesan mixture.
-
Heat some olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and brown the chicken breasts on both sides until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
-
Place the browned chicken breasts in a baking dish and top each one with marinara sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Garnish with fresh basil before serving.
