2) Create

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a baking dish.

Blend olive oil and garlic in one bowl. In another bowl, combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, basil and black pepper. Dip each chicken breast in the oil before dipping in the bread crumbs. Place the coated chicken breasts in the baking dish.

3) Bake

Bake in the oven for 25 minutes.

Carefully remove the hot baking dish with oven mitts, and add 1 tablespoon of your choice of pasta sauce or marinara on each chicken breast and sprinkle shredded cheese on top (I used mild cheddar and Monterey jack shreds because I didn't have enough Parmesan). Bake for an additional 5 minutes.
