👩‍🍳 Instructions (The AI's Game Plan)

🎯 Follow along with our AI chef's step-by-step adventure. Results may vary wildly!

1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

⏱️ 10 min (ish) 🌡️ 400°F

AI Wisdom: Ensure the oven is fully preheated before baking.
2

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Dredge each breast in flour, shaking off any excess.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Coating the chicken with flour helps the egg wash adhere.
3

Dip the floured chicken breasts into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Coating the chicken with egg creates a base for the breadcrumbs.
4

Coat the chicken in the seasoned breadcrumbs mixed with half of the Parmesan cheese, pressing gently to adhere.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Pressing the breadcrumbs ensures a crispy coating.
5

Place the breaded chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

⏱️ 25 min (ish) 🌡️ 400°F

AI Wisdom: Chicken is done when internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
6

Remove the chicken from the oven. Top each breast with marinara sauce, remaining Parmesan, and mozzarella cheese.

AI Wisdom: Evenly distribute the toppings for uniform melting.
7

Return the chicken to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

⏱️ 7 min (ish) 🌡️ 400°F

AI Wisdom: Watch carefully to prevent burning.
8

Garnish with chopped basil before serving.

AI Wisdom: Fresh basil adds a pop of color and freshness.
