Coat each cutlet in flour, then egg, then the panko mixture.Heat about 1/4 in (6 mm) vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken until golden and cooked through, 5-7 minutes total, turning halfway. Drain on paper towels.For the marinara, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Cook the onion and garlic until soft, about 4 minutes. Add tomatoes and water; season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Simmer 10 minutes, then stir in parsley.Spread the sauce in a 9 x 13 in (23 x 33 cm) baking dish. Arrange the chicken over the sauce, top with mozzarella, and bake 10-12 minutes, until melted. Broil briefly for extra browning if desired.Garnish with parsley and Parmesan and serve immediately.Keep cookingRelated recipesMore in Main Dishes → Main DishesCreamy Chicken and Gnocchi Bake8 servings30 min Main DishesChicken Piccata30 min Main DishesCreamy Tuscan Chicken4 servings45 min Main DishesTex-Mex Meatballs4 servings30 min
