Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

1. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees.

2. Stir the oil and herbs in a small bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Brush both sides of the cutlets with the herb oil. Heat a heavy, large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Add the cutlets and cook just until brown, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the skillet from the heat.

3. Spoon the marinara sauce over and around the cutlets. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of mozzarella over each cutlet. Bake until the cheese melts and the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh basil.
