How to Make Mozzarella Chicken
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch thick cutlets.
- In a shallow dish, whisk 2 large eggs.
- In a separate shallow dish, combine 1 cup breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Dip each chicken cutlet in the egg, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Brown the chicken cutlets for 2-3 minutes per side, until lightly golden.
- Transfer the browned chicken to a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a bowl, whisk together 1 cup chicken broth, 1/2 cup water, and 2 tablespoons lemon juice.
- Pour the chicken broth mixture evenly over the chicken in the baking dish.
- Generously sprinkle 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F).
