How about some chicken parmesian?

Ingredients:

chicken breast (the amount can vary, and some like to use a mallet to flatten out the chicken before cooking[put it between some wax paper if you go this route!!--try both ways for preferred taste)

-graded parmesian cheese

-breadcrumbs(seasoned or unseasoned)

-tomato sauce

--pasta noodles

--mozarella cheese

--1 egg



Baking:


A) set oven to 350 degrees

1) mix the breadcrumbs with some parmesian cheese in a mixing bowl.

2) scramble 1 egg in a second bowl.

3) rinse chicken (and prepare further if desired--see above)

4) bread chicken in breadcrumbs (after an egg coating)

5) brown chicken in a frying pan ( on medium heat, usually no more than 1-2 minutes per side)

6) place chicken in a baking dish (i like to put a 1/4 inch layer of sauce in the dish before putting the chicken in)... then add additional sauce to desired amount --usually semi-submerging the chicken, but make sure you don't over flow it!!!!)

**-I also mix in a little mozarella cheese in the sauce before cooking.

7) place chicken in preheated oven for 30 minutes COVERED

8) after 30 minutes, remove cover and add mozarella cheese to cover chicken and some sauce (again to your personal preference)

9) bake uncovered for another 10 minutes (cheese should be fully melted and slightly browned)




PASTA:

1) choose pasta of your choice (regular spaghetti works just fine).

2) boil water with about 10 minutes left of COVERED baking.. I add a little salt for taste and olive oil.

3) boil pasta at about the same time your remove the cover for your chicken.

4) both pasta and chicken should be done at about the same time..Enjoy!
