Instructions
- Combine bread crumbs, grated parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning in a small bowl.
- Preheat air fryer to 375°F.
- Dip chicken in beaten egg. Season chicken with salt & pepper and then dip into the bread crumb mixture (press to adhere). Spray chicken with cooking spray and place in the air fryer.
- Cook 6 minutes. Flip chicken over and cook an additional 5-6 minutes.
- Spread marinara sauce over the top of each chicken breast. Top with mozzarella and shredded Parmesan. Air fry for an additional 3-4 minutes or until cheese is melted and chicken reaches 165°F.
- Top with herbs and serve with pasta and additional sauce if desired.
Notes
- Choose chicken portions that are equal in size, pat them dry before the egg and breadcrumb steps. Gently press breadcrumbs into the meat to ensure the entire piece is coated.
- Always be sure to preheat the air fryer and avoid crowding the basket or pan. The key to that perfectly crispy exterior is the hot circulating around the chicken.
- Check the internal temperature of the chicken at the thickest portion and ensure it reaches 165°F.
- If you will be keeping leftovers, the sauce can be added when reheating instead.
