Ingredients

Yields: 4 servings / Prep Time: 10 mins Total Time: 50 mins

  • 2 large skinless boneless chicken breasts
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup panko bread crumbs
  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup marinara
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • Freshly chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Carefully butterfly the chicken by cutting in half widthwise all the way through to create 4 thin pieces of chicken; season both sides with salt and black pepper.
  • Place flour in a shallow bowl; season with a large pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
  • In another shallow bowl, beat eggs to blend.
  • In a third shallow bowl, combine panko, Parmesan, oregano, red pepper flakes, and garlic powder.
  • Working one at a time, coat the chicken in flour, shaking off any excess.
  • Dip into eggs, letting excess drip off, then finally dip into the panko mixture, gently pressing to adhere and ensuring both sides of the chicken are well-coated.
  • Working in batches if necessary, in an air fryer basket, arrange chicken in a single layer.
  • Cook at 400°F, turning once, for 5 minutes per side.
  • Top the chicken with marinara and mozzarella.
  • Continue to cook at 400°F until the cheese is melted and golden, about 3 minutes more.
  • Divide the chicken among plates.
  • Garnish with parsley.
