  11. 6 slicesor so of provolone cheese
  12. 2 Tbsolive oil
  13. 1 Tbsgarlic powder (optional)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut chicken, use a piece of plastic wrap to cover and pound meat. Pat dry and season with salt, pepper & garlic powder if using.

  2. 2

    Set up your station: flour, whisked egg (add a splash of water) & panko bread crumbs with Parmesan cheese. Follow: flour, egg mixture then bread crumb mixture. Once all are done, put on a plate and put in fridge until oil is ready. Note: you could use a sifter to sift flour on top of chicken!

  3. 3

    Pour oil into a pan over medium-medium high heat. You can tell it is done when you splash a little water & it begins to bubble. Preheat oven to 450.

  4. 4

    Cook chicken in the hot oil until golden, about 2-3 minutes per side. The chicken will finish cooking in the oven.

  5. 5

    Transfer chicken to a baking dish. Top each breast with 2 tablespoons tomato sauce. Layer each chicken breast with equal amounts of mozzarella cheese, basil, and provolone cheese. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over top and drizzle each with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is browned and bubbly and chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F.
