Prepare the Coating Ingredients: In three separate shallow dishes, prepare the coating stations. Place the flour in the first dish, beaten eggs in the second, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in the third.

Coat the Chicken: Start by coating each chicken breast in flour, making sure to shake off any excess. Next, dip it in the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, press the chicken into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it’s evenly coated on all sides.

Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C). Set the cooked chicken on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Assemble the Chicken Parmesan: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the cooked chicken breasts on a baking sheet or in an oven-safe dish. Top each with about 1/4 cup marinara sauce and a slice of mozzarella cheese.

Bake and Serve: Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cheese melts and bubbles. Garnish with fresh basil before serving.
