Creating Gluten-Free Chicken Parmesan is simple and rewarding. Follow these steps to make a delicious dish:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Gently pound them to an even thickness, about ½ inch.
3. Make the Breading Mixture: In a shallow bowl, combine gluten-free breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
4. Prepare the Egg Wash: In another bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed.
5. Bread the Chicken:
– Dip each chicken breast first into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off.
– Then, coat the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the breading.
6. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot before adding the chicken.
7. Fry the Chicken: Place the breaded chicken breasts in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
8. Transfer to Baking Dish: Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a baking dish.
9. Add Marinara Sauce: Spoon marinara sauce evenly over each chicken breast.
10. Top with Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the sauce.
11. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
12. Garnish: If desired, garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.

These simple steps will guide you to create an incredible gluten-free chicken Parmesan that will impress everyone at your table!
