Step 1

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat; set aside.

Step 2

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain well.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs and Parmesan. Working one at a time, brush butter on each chicken breast and dredge in breadcrumb mixture, pressing to coat.

Step 4

Place onto prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Gently flip and bake until the crust is golden and the chicken is completely cooked through, about 5 minutes more.

Step 5

Remove from oven; spoon 1 tablespoon marinara on each chicken breast and sprinkle with 1-2 tablespoons mozzarella. Place into oven and bake until cheese has melted, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Serve immediately with spaghetti and additional marinara, if desired.

Chef’s notes

Dredging the chicken in a simple breadcrumb mixture and baking it saves time and effort.
