Method

  1. 1.

    Preheat oven to 392°F. Place chicken breasts between two sheets of baking paper and flatten to 1.5cm thickness with a rolling pin.

  2. 2.

    Set up three shallow bowls: flour seasoned with salt and pepper, beaten eggs, and panko breadcrumbs.

  3. 3.

    Coat each chicken breast in flour, shake off excess, dip in egg, then press firmly into panko crumbs.

    Press crumbs on firmly for an extra crispy coating.

  4. 4.

    Heat olive oil in a large ovenproof frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook crumbed chicken for 3 minutes each side until golden.

  5. 5.

    Spoon napoli sauce over each chicken breast, top with mozzarella and parmesan.

  6. 6.

    Transfer pan to oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbling. Serve with a side salad or chips.
