Easy Chicken Parmesan (Quick, Weeknight-Friendly)
Ingredients: 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or 4 cutlets), salt and pepper, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 2 eggs, 1 cup breadcrumbs (Italian-style if available), 1/2 cup grated Parmesan, 2–3 cups marinara sauce, 1–2 cups shredded mozzarella, 2 tbsp olive oil (optional), chopped parsley (optional). Steps: 1) Heat oven to 425°F (220°C). Lightly grease a baking dish. 2) Pound chicken to even thickness (about 1/2 inch) for faster, more even cooking. Season with salt and pepper. 3) Set up breading: flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and breadcrumbs + Parmesan in a third. Coat chicken in flour, dip in egg, then press into breadcrumb mixture. 4) Place in the baking dish. Bake 18–22 minutes until chicken is cooked through (165°F / 74°C). 5) Spoon marinara over chicken, top with mozzarella, and bake 5–8 minutes more until bubbly and browned. Rest 2 minutes, then serve with pasta or a side salad.

Tips for Best Results
For extra crispiness, broil 1–2 minutes at the end (watch closely). If using thicker chicken, extend baking time and verify internal temperature. You can also pan-sear breaded cutlets 2–3 minutes per side before baking for a deeper golden crust.

Professional-care note (health)
If you have food allergies (eggs, dairy, gluten) or need dietary modifications, check labels and substitute accordingly. For food safety, cook chicken to 165°F (74°C) and refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours; reheat to steaming hot.
