Ingredients

4 Chicken Breasts
1 bunch of Oregano
200 g Mozzarella Cheese
100 g Provolone Cheese
2 cloves of Garlic
120 g Panko Breadcrumbs
2 Eggs
700 ml Tomato Sauce
2 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
1/2 tsp Dried Basil

Method

1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
2
Butterfly the chicken breasts by slicing them horizontally, but not all the way through, and open them up like a book.
3
Place the chicken between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
4
In a shallow dish, beat the eggs with salt and pepper. In another dish, mix panko breadcrumbs with dried basil.
5
Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
6
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
7
Spread the tomato sauce in the bottom of a baking dish. Place the cooked chicken on top of the sauce.
8
Slice the mozzarella and provolone cheese and place on top of the chicken breasts.
9
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
10
While the chicken is baking, heat a small pan over medium heat, add a bit of olive oil and minced garlic, and sauté for 30 seconds.
11
Pour the garlic oil over the baked chicken before serving. Garnish with fresh oregano leaves.
