Ingredients

• •8 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• •1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
• •1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• •2 cups marinara sauce
• •2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• •3 large eggs
• •1/2 cup all-purpose gluten-free flour
• •2 tbsp olive oil
• •1 tsp garlic powder
• •1 tsp dried oregano
• •1 tsp dried basil
• •Salt and pepper to taste
• •Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. 2

   Set up a breading station: In one bowl, place the gluten-free flour. In the second bowl, beat the eggs. In the third bowl, combine gluten-free breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper.

3. 3

   Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels, then season both sides with salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Dredge each chicken breast in the gluten-free flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, and then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

5. 5

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown.

6. 6

   In a large baking dish, spread 1 cup of marinara sauce on the bottom. Place the browned chicken breasts on top and cover each with the remaining marinara sauce, followed by a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F) and cheese is bubbly and golden.

8. 8

   Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh basil if desired.
