Ingredients
  

  • 2 chicken breasts sliced lengthwise into 4 cutlets
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning blend
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup Italian breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup shredded parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley finely chopped

Instructions
 

  • Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness if need be. Set aside.
  • Place the flour, salt, Italian seasoning blend, garlic powder, and ground black pepper in a shallow dish. Stir to combine.
  • Place the eggs in a second shallow dish. Lightly beat them.
  • Place the Italian seasoned breadcrumbs and shredded parmesan cheese into a third shallow dish. Stir to combine.
  • First, dredge the chicken breast cutlets one at a time in the flour mixture.
  • Then, dip in the egg mixture, shaking off any excess.
  • Finally, place in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing the crumbs to the sides of the chicken.
  • Place the chicken in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook in batches if need be.
  • Air fry at 380°F/190°C for 8 minutes.
  • Flip the chicken over and then top with marinara sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese. Air fry an additional 3-4 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F/74°C.
  • Top with parsley before serving.
