Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, seasoning salt, and black pepper. Let sit in the refrigerator for about 26 hours.

Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and add 1/2 cup of water, then mix well.

Pour panko breadcrumbs into a zip bag and add Romano cheese, mixing them together.

Add the chicken breasts to the bag with the breadcrumb mixture, one at a time, ensuring they are well coated.

Use a meat mallet to pound the chicken breasts to a more uniform thickness for even cooking.

Heat canola oil in a skillet until hot, then add the chicken breasts to fry.

Fry the chicken breasts until golden brown, turning them to ensure even cooking.

Check the internal temperature of the chicken with a meat thermometer to ensure they reach 165°F.

Place the fried chicken on a wire rack to keep them from getting soggy while cooking in the oven.

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

After frying, place the chicken in the oven for 20 minutes to finish cooking.

Add marinara sauce on top of the chicken before serving.
