Servings: persons

1 egg
1 tablespoon water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
5 zucchinis, sliced
4 tomatoes, sliced
2/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 teaspoons chopped fresh basil
1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2
Beat egg, water, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Set 2 tablespoons bread crumbs aside; pour remaining bread crumbs into a large resealable plastic bag. Dip chicken in egg mixture, then place in bag and shake to coat.
3
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken in skillet until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove chicken from pan. Add remaining 2 tablespoons oil to skillet; cook and stir zucchini and garlic over medium heat until zucchini is slightly tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer to prepared baking dish.
4
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons reserved bread crumbs over zucchini. Top with tomato slices, 2/3 cup mozzarella cheese, and basil. Place chicken on top of zucchini layer. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
5
Bake in preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Uncover and sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
