Method

Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and pat them dry with paper towels.
Set up three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs mixed with milk, and one with breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Coat each chicken piece in flour, dip it in the egg mixture, then press it into the breadcrumb mixture until evenly covered.
Place the coated chicken bites on the baking sheet and lightly spray the tops with olive oil.
Bake for 12 minutes, flip the bites, then bake for 4 to 6 more minutes until golden and cooked through.
Spoon a little marinara over each bite, top with mozzarella, and return to the oven for 1 to 2 minutes until the cheese melts.
Sprinkle with parsley and serve warm with pasta or bread for dipping.
