ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1-1/2 pounds)
- 1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 cup italian dried breadcrumbs (Add some Parmesan to Bread crumbs)
- 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded (8 ounce pkg)
- 1⁄2 cup parmesan cheese
- 1 lb spaghetti, cooked al dente
- 1 (10 ounce) jar marinara sauce
directions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Get the ingredients together for the chicken so you have a little assembly line. Put the chicken breasts side by side on a cutting board and lay a piece of plastic wrap over them. Pound the chicken breasts with a flat meat mallet, until they are about 1/2-inch thick. Put the flour in a shallow platter and season with a fair amount of salt and pepper; mix with a fork to distribute evenly. In a wide bowl, combine the eggs and water, beat until frothy. Put the bread crumbs on a plate, season with salt and pepper and Parmesan.
- Heat 3 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high flame in a large oven-proof skillet. Lightly dredge both sides of the chicken cutlets in the seasoned flour, and then dip them in the egg wash to coat completely, letting the excess drip off, then dredge in the bread crumbs. When the oil is nice and hot, add the cutlets and fry for 4 minutes on each side until golden and crusty, turning once.
- Pour marinara sauce (right out of the jar) over the chicken and sprinkle with mozzarella, Parmesan, and basil. Add a little Olive oil over all. Bake the Chicken Parmesan for 15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly. Serve hot with spaghetti.

Great recipe for chicken parm. I skipped the frying part and did all the cooking in the oven to make it more healthy. Made for ZWT 3! -
My 1st time making this dish.... it wasn't as difficult as I thought ... The finished product is amazing! -
Nice and easy recipe for Chicken Parm. I skipped the frying part completely and just baked the chicken. Nice flavors and simple to put together - a great recipe to share with a budding chef (which I did with my college aged daughter!). Thanks for sharing. -
Easy to follow delicious recipe!<br/>I did the frying part but then transferred the chicken into a pan and then covered with sauce and baked.<br/>I used Italian Panko for the breading it worked really well. <br/>I do recommend either holding a little sauce off on the side for on top of spaghetti or warming some on the stove if you'd like it a little saucier. <br/>Overall super delicious and super easy! -

I love reading about food, writing about food, cooking food and.. not surprisingly, eating food. My latest passion is food-photography! I'm still learning a lot, but I'm trying to post photos with all my recipes and reviews. I read recipe books, magazines and food blogs like novels. I get such satisfaction when someone enjoys a meal or dessert that I have prepared. It is the biggest compliment to me when my family and friends rave about my cooking. There are so many terrific recipes on this site. If I'm looking for something, I'm sure to find it here. I do have stacks of my own favorite recipes which I am slowly but surely getting in my cookbooks here . I have had so many awesome reviews and fabulous photos taken of my recipes... I try to thank everyone personally .. I sincerely appreciate each and every review and or comment left.
