For a richer flavor, consider using a homemade tomato sauce or adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce for a subtle kick. Pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness ensures uniform cooking. Fresh basil leaves, chopped and sprinkled over the finished dish, add a burst of herbaceousness. If you prefer a crispier crust, try breading the chicken breasts lightly before baking.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly coat a baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking. Place the chicken breasts evenly spaced on the prepared pan. (5 minutes)
02
StepBake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, ensuring even cooking by flipping the chicken breasts after 12 minutes. This allows for a golden-brown crust to develop. (20 minutes)
03
StepRemove the partially cooked chicken from the oven. Generously spoon your desired amount of tomato sauce over each breast, then top with slices of creamy mozzarella cheese. (5 minutes)
04
StepReturn the pan to the oven and continue baking until the cheese is beautifully melted and bubbly, and the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), approximately 12 more minutes. (12 minutes)

Jun 25, 2025I found that 20 minutes was too long to cook the chicken initially, it got a little dry. I'd recommend checking it after 15 minutes.
