Directions
For the Chicken
Whisk together eggs, garlic, parsley, spices, salt and pepper in a large dish. Add the chicken into the eggs. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Fry the chicken until golden and crispy
Place the chicken in a rack and reserve in preheated oven (220C)
For the sauce
Heat olive oil in a medium pot. Fry the onion and garlic until transparent and fragrant. Add the tomato puree, spices, salt, pepper, sugar, oregano and fresh basil. Cover with lid to simmer for about 8-10 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning
Place the fried chicken in baking tray, and top each breast with a bit of sauce, 2-3 slices of mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese. Sprinkle with chopped basil
Bake for 10 minutes or until cheese is bubbling and melted
