Directions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread the marinara sauce evenly on the bottom of an 8×8 baking dish.
Layer the Cheeses: Place the mozzarella cheese over the sauce, then sprinkle the chopped basil on top.
Prepare the Chicken: Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Arrange them evenly in the baking dish on top of the mozzarella and basil.
Add the Topping: In a bowl, combine the panko bread crumbs, grated parmesan cheese, parsley, and dried oregano. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the chicken breasts. Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until the chicken is cooked through and the topping is golden and crispy.
Enjoy your effortless yet delicious chicken parmesan casserole!
