Steps

1Place chicken breasts between plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet until about 1/4 inch thick.

2Set up three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko mixed with 1/4 cup parmesan, salt, and pepper.

3Coat each chicken breast lightly in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in egg, then press firmly into breadcrumb mixture until well coated on both sides.

4Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When shimmering, add chicken in batches and cook until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

5In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in canned crushed tomatoes, 1/4 cup remaining parmesan, and half the fresh basil. Simmer for 5 minutes.

6Preheat your broiler to high.

7Arrange cooked chicken in a baking dish and spoon sauce over each piece. Top with mozzarella cheese.

8Place under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch carefully to avoid browning too much.

9Garnish with remaining fresh basil and serve immediately.
