Baked Chicken Parmesan

/ krby4

This recipe is fairly easy to follow and delicious. I have never once under or over cooked this recipe, and if you pair it with our Spaghetti Sauce it is bound to come out great.

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh shredded parmesan split in half
  • 1-1.5 cups of Italian bread crumbs
  • 1 pound pasta
  • 1 quart Spaghetti Sauce

Tools

  • One large baking sheet or casserole pan
  • One large pot for cooking pasta
  • One large cutting board
  • One meat tenderizing hammer
  • Two bowls for breading your chicken

Method

  • Preheat oven to 350
  • Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise, and then cut those pieces in half horizontally
  • Place some plastic wrap over your cut pieces of meat, and use your meat tenderizer on each piece. You should only have to hit the meat a few times, just make sure each piece is slightly tenderized
  • Beat your eggs in one of the two bowls
  • Place your breadcrumbs and 1/2 cup of grated parmesan in the other bowl, and mix until combined
  • One piece at a time, cover your chicken with egg, then breadcrumbs and move to your baking sheet or casserole pan
  • Bake for 45 minutes at 350
  • While chicken is baking, heat up your spaghetti sauce and start the water for your pasta
  • Prepare pasta according to package directions
  • When the chicken is done, place roughly 2 tbsp spaghetti sauce on each piece of chicken, and a small pinch of parmesan. Or do a lot, this part is really up to you. Make sure to reserve some sauce for the pasta
  • Broil for 4-6 minutes on high. For crunchier cheese, broil longer
  • Use the rest of your spaghetti sauce in your noodles
  • Place either on the noodles or on the side of them
