Eggs existed before chickens. The fossil record is the scientific answer.

100%. But I do want to note for those in the back seats, matrotrophy and integumentation evolved multiple times and independently in other lineages, like plants and algae. So even though plants follow the same “sperm and egg” pattern, its evolution is wholly independent. Turns out investing in the next generation is a broadly advantageous evolutionary strategy.
