𝐈𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬: 

1 boneless skinless chicken breast

2 cups flour

4 eggs

2 cups seasoned breadcrumb

1 cup oil

1 baguette large

10 slices mozzarella cheese

marinara sauce

⅓ cup butter

3 cloves garlic

1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped

1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese

𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬:

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 1

Slice the chicken breast into ½ inch (1 ¼ cm) thick strips.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 2

Place the flour, eggs, and bread crumbs into 3 separate bowls.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 3

Roll a chicken strip in the flour, dusting off excess. Dip the strip into the egg, then place into the bread crumbs, coating it completely.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 4

Repeat with the remaining chicken.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 5

Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat to 350˚F (180˚C).

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 6

Preheat oven to 350°F (180˚C).

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 7

Fry the breaded chicken strips until both sides are golden brown.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 8

Remove from heat and drain on a paper towel.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 9

Slice the baguette into thirds or fourths (each baguette piece should be roughly the same length of the fried chicken strips).

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 10

Hollow out the insides of the baguette pieces with a knife.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 11

Lay two slices of mozzarella on top of each other with a 1 inch (2 ½ cm) overlap. Place a chicken strip on the overlapping region, then fold the mozzarella tightly around the chicken.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 12

Push the rolled chicken strips into a baguette piece.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 13

Slice the stuffed baguette pieces into 1 inch (2 ½ cm) slices, then place them tightly side-by-side on a baking sheet lined with foil.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 14

In a small bowl, mix together ingredients for garlic butter.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 15

Brush the garlic butter evenly over the baguette slices, making sure some drips in between the slices.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 16

Wrap the foil over the re-assembled baguette and bake for 20–25 minutes, until cheese is melted and the top is starting to brown.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩 17

Remove the foil and serve with marinara!
