Ingredients
  

For the Chicken:

2 large chicken breasts, sliced into thin fillets

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 large eggs, beaten

1 cup Italian breadcrumbs

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for frying

For the Sliders:

12 slider rolls

1 ½ cups marinara sauce

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Fresh basil leaves (for garnish)

2 tablespoons butter, melted

1 teaspoon garlic salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken:

    - In three separate shallow dishes, set up a breading station: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and the third with a mixture of breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.

      - Dredge each chicken cutlet first in the flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat generously with the breadcrumb mixture. Press down gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere well.

        Cook the Chicken:

          - In a large skillet, heat about 1/4 inch of olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken pieces in batches (do not overcrowd the pan) and fry for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

            Assemble the Sliders:

              - Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

                - Cut the slider rolls in half, placing the bottom halves in a large baking dish. Spoon a layer of marinara sauce over each roll, then place a piece of the fried chicken on top. Add a generous amount of shredded mozzarella cheese on each piece of chicken.

                  Add the Top and Bake:

                    - Place the top halves of the slider rolls on each slider. Brush melted butter on top and sprinkle with garlic salt for extra flavor.

                      - Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.

                        Garnish and Serve:

                          - Once baked, carefully remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving. Enjoy your delicious homemade chicken parmesan sliders with extra marinara sauce on the side!
