Ingredients:

• 2 breasts of chicken

• Panko breadcrumbs, 1 1/2 cups

• 1 teaspoon of seasoning mix

• grated half a cup of parmesan cheese

• 1 salt shakerful

• a half-teaspoon of black pepper, ground

• One big egg

• 14 cup of milk

• all-purpose flour, 1/3 cup

• 1 cup of sauce for pasta

• a half-cup of mozzarella cheese

STEPS TO MAKE IT

Step 1:

Gather the ingredients. Heat the air fryer to 370 degrees and the oven to 375 degrees.You should cut each chicken breast into four cutlets by butterflying each breast in half.

Step 2:

The thickness of the chicken breasts should be 1/4 inch. If you want to get thinner, you can. To avoid a mess, put the chicken breast in a plastic bag while you are pounding.

Step 3:

Shake the breadcrumbs onto a baking sheet to distribute them evenly. For about 3 minutes, toast in the oven until golden brown. Place the breadcrumbs in a small bowl and top with Parmesan cheese and Italian spice.

Step 4:

The salt and pepper should be divided between two separate shallow dishes. Beat the egg and milk together in a bowl to mix.

Step 5:

To the remaining bowl, add the flour and whisk in the salt and pepper. To coat both sides, dip the pounded chicken breast into the flour mixture. The egg mixture should now include the floured chicken. So that no flour crumbs are visible, coat both sides.

Step 6:

To properly saturate the chicken with the breadcrumbs, press down on the bird after adding it to the mixture of breadcrumbs. With the remaining 3 chicken breasts, repeat the process.

Step 7:

Place two of the chicken breasts in the air fryer's basket (if you can fit more in yours, while keeping them in one even layer, do so). 12 minutes at 370 F or until the chicken is air-fried and the internal temperature reaches 165 F. The chicken doesn't need to be turned over. Repeat with the remaining 2 breasts, keeping the chicken breasts warm in the oven.

Step 8:

Add some mozzarella cheese and marinara sauce to the top of each breast. For a further 3 minutes, air fried at 370 F, or until the cheese is melted. To the remaining breasts, repeat the process. Serve right away.
