Delicious Chicken Parmesan Bagel Sandwiches

These Chicken Parmesan Bagel Sandwiches feature breaded chicken cutlets topped with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese, all served on a toasted bagel. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 4 sandwiches.

Ingredients

4 bagels, split and toasted
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Prep the Chicken: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness for even cooking.
Bread the Chicken: In a shallow dish, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Dredge each chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere.
Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium heat with a little oil. Cook the breaded chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a baking dish.
Add Sauce and Cheese: Spoon marinara sauce over each chicken breast and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Assemble the Sandwiches: Place each chicken cutlet on the bottom half of a toasted bagel. Top with fresh basil leaves if desired, then add the bagel top.
Serve: Enjoy the sandwiches warm, with extra marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
