Creating Gluten-Free Chicken Parmesan can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with olive oil.
2. Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet to pound them to about ½ inch thick for even cooking.
3. Make the Coating: In a shallow bowl, mix the gluten-free breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
4. Prepare the Egg Wash: In another bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
5. Coat the Chicken: Dip each chicken breast first into the egg wash, allowing the excess to drip off. Then, coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs.
6. Arrange in Baking Dish: Place the coated chicken breasts in the greased baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil for added crispiness.
7. Bake the Chicken: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
8. Add Marinara Sauce: Remove the chicken from the oven and spoon marinara sauce generously over each piece.
9. Top with Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the chicken and return to the oven.
10. Melt the Cheese: Bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
11. Garnish: Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.

By following these steps, you’ll create a delectable Gluten-Free Chicken Parmesan that everyone will love!
