Come preparare

1
Heat the oven to 220°C. Line a large baking sheet with parchment and lightly brush it with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.
2
Cut each chicken breast horizontally into two cutlets. Place them between sheets of parchment and gently pound to an even 1 cm thickness. Season both sides with the salt and black pepper.
3
Set out the flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs and Italian seasoning in three shallow dishes. Coat each cutlet in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs, pressing lightly so the coating adheres.
4
Arrange the cutlets on the prepared sheet and drizzle or brush with the remaining olive oil. Bake for 12 minutes, until the undersides are golden, then turn and bake for 6–8 minutes more.

5
Spoon about 60 ml of tomato sauce over each cutlet, leaving a 1 cm border of crust exposed. Sprinkle the mozzarella evenly over the sauced centers, then finish with the grated Parmesan.
6
Return the sheet to the oven and bake for 5–7 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and the thickest part of the chicken reaches 74°C.

Rest the chicken for 5 minutes so the juices settle, then scatter with torn basil and serve while the crust remains crisp.

Perché questa ricetta funziona

A thin cutlet gives the breaded coating time to brown before the chicken dries out, while a brief bake with sauce and cheese creates the familiar contrast of crisp edges, tender meat, tangy tomato, and melted dairy.

Conservazione e riscaldamento

Come conservarla

Refrigerate cooled leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Keep the chicken and pasta separate when possible to preserve the crust.

Come riscaldarla

Reheat on a rack in a 190°C oven for 12–15 minutes, until the center reaches 74°C and the cheese is bubbling. Avoid microwaving if crispness matters.
