Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 skinless, boneless thin-sliced chicken breasts (or skinless, boneless chicken breasts halved to make fillets)
  • salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup gluten-free panko bread crumbs
  • 1 cup gluten-free bread crumbs
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup gluten-free flour

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
  2. Whisk the eggs in a shallow bowl or pie pan. Set aside.
  3. In another shallow dish, combine the gluten-free flour.
  4. In a third shallow bowl, mix the gluten-free panko, gluten-free bread crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
  5. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge each piece in the gluten-free flour, shaking off any excess.
  6. Dip the floured chicken into the whisked eggs, letting any excess drip off. Then coat thoroughly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Repeat for all chicken pieces.
  7. Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Carefully place the coated chicken in the hot oil and cook for about 2 minutes per side until golden brown. The chicken will finish cooking in the oven.
  8. Transfer the golden-brown chicken to a greased baking dish. Top each piece with 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.

Notes

– Ensure your gluten-free flour and breadcrumbs are finely ground for the best coating.
– Don’t overcrowd the skillet when searing; cook in batches if necessary.
– For an extra cheesy top, add a sprinkle of mozzarella before the final bake.
