Notes

• For extra crispy breading, you can add 1/4 cup of panko breadcrumbs to the Italian breadcrumbs.
• To prevent the breading from sticking to the pan, lightly spray the skillet with cooking spray.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• For a deeper flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinara sauce.
