Directions
- Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Place the chicken breasts in the prepared dish, arranging them evenly. Pour the marinara sauce over the top to coat the chicken.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan evenly over the chicken and sauce.
- Top the casserole with breadcrumbs for a crunchy, golden finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 74°C (165°F) and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the flavors to settle.
