Follow these steps to create your incredible Chicken Sorrentino:

1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Eggplant: Sprinkle salt on the eggplant slices and let them sit for 15 minutes to draw out moisture. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
3. Sauté Eggplant: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the eggplant slices and sauté until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from heat and set aside.
4. Season Chicken: Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
5. Sear Chicken: In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed. Sear the chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. They do not need to be fully cooked, as they will finish cooking in the oven.
6. Layer Ingredients: In a baking dish, arrange the seared chicken breasts. Layer each breast with a slice of prosciutto, followed by a slice of sautéed eggplant. Pour marinara sauce over the top and sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden, and the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
8. Garnish: Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
