Ingredients

4 chicken cutlets, boneless skinless chicken
1 egg
¼ cup whole milk
½ cup Italian breadcrumbs
¼ cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup olive oil
1 (22-ounce) jar marinara sauce
¾ cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

Instructions

In a bowl, whisk together 1 egg and ¼ cup whole milk. In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup Italian breadcrumbs, ¼ cup parmesan cheese,1 teaspoon saltand ½ teaspoon black pepper.
Coat 4 chicken cutlets, in the egg mixture, then dredge each one in the breadcrumb mixture.
Heat ¼ cup olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Once the oil is hot, sear each breaded cutlet for 3-4 minutes on each side. Just fry the breading on the chicken and par cook it.
At the bottom of a crockpot, pour 1 (22-ounce) jar marinara sauce and place the seared chicken on the sauce. Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low for 4-5 hours or high for 3-4.
In the last 30 minutes of cooking, sprinkle ¾ cup mozzarella cheese, on the chicken. Cover and allow the cheese to melt.
When the chicken is cooked through, serve over pasta and enjoy!
