How do you keep the chicken crispy longer?

Add the cheese directly over the cutlet and then spoon the sauce on top. This way there isn’t lots of moisture in contact with the panko and the chicken stays crispier.

Make the Sauce

Combine the sauce ingredients. Simmer then set aside.

Mix the breading

Whisk the breading ingredients in a shallow dish until well combined.

Dredge the chicken

Pat the chicken dry on all sides with a paper towel. Dredge it in the breading mixture.

Use egg mixture

Dredge the chicken in the eggs and then in the breading mixture. Cover on all sides.

Arrange the chicken

Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Spray it with cooking spray.

Bake it

Pop it into the oven for 30 minutes or until crispy.

Make it melty

Remove from the oven and add tomato sauce and mozzarella. Bake until melty.

Serve!

Remove the chicken from the oven and serve it immediately over zucchini noodles. Garnish it with fresh basil and enjoy.
