Delicious Chicken Parmesan Garlic Toast Stack

This recipe features tender chicken breasts coated in a crispy breadcrumb mixture, layered between slices of garlic toast, and topped with marinara sauce and melted cheese. It serves 4 people and takes about 30 minutes to prepare and cook.

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 slices of garlic bread
Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Coat the Chicken: In a shallow dish, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Dredge each chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.
Bake the Chicken: Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
Toast the Garlic Bread: While the chicken is baking, prepare the garlic bread according to package instructions or make your own by spreading garlic butter on slices of bread and toasting them in the oven.
Assemble the Stack: Once the chicken is done, layer each chicken breast on top of a slice of garlic bread. Spoon marinara sauce over the chicken and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
Melt the Cheese: Return the stacked chicken to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Garnish with fresh basil if desired and serve immediately.
