Ingredients
Scale
- 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
- 10 fresh basil leaves
- 4 crusty sub rolls
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Generously season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Dredge each chicken breast in seasoned breadcrumbs until fully coated.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry each breaded chicken breast for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
- Transfer fried chicken to a baking sheet, spoon marinara sauce over the top, and add slices of mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Assemble sandwiches by placing cheesy chicken cutlets in sub rolls and adding fresh basil leaves.
Notes
- For extra crunch, double-coat the chicken before frying.
- Swap out chicken for eggplant for a satisfying vegetarian option.
- Experiment with different cheeses like provolone or gouda to enhance flavor.
