Ingredients
- 16 oz skinless chicken breasts sliced in half to make 4 cutlets
- 1 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 egg beaten
- 3/4 cup marinara sauce
- 2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning
- salt and pepper to taste
- cooking oil I use olive oil.
Instructions
- Spray the air fryer basket with cooking oil.
- Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally to create 4 thinner chicken breasts. Place the chicken breasts on a hard surface and pound them to completely flatten.
- Combine the panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, and Italian Seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl large enough to dip the chicken breasts. Stir to combine.
- Place the egg in a bowl large enough to dip the chicken.
- Dip the chicken in the egg and then the breadcrumbs mixture.
- Place in the chicken breasts in the air fryer. Spray the top of the chicken with cooking oil.
- Cook for 7 minutes on 370 degrees.
- Open the air fryer. Top each of the breasts with marinara sauce and then the shredded mozzarella.
- Cook for an additional 3 minutes or until cheese has melted. Every air fryer brand will cook at varying speeds. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
Notes
- You can substitute any breadcrumbs you wish, including Italian seasoned breadcrumbs.
