Easy and Fast Chicken Parm

"Fast and easy. I gave this to my DD to make as her first "have Popou (Grandpa) over for dinner". Delicious comfort food that lends to conversation before, during, and after dinner. Serve with crusty bread and a nice bottle of wine (or soda) edited to add- you may use any store bought you like or your own homemade for the "ragu" sauce."

  1. The recipe name said it all "easy and fast" but forgot to say how yummy this chicken is. This is a perfect work day (I work on weekends) or weekday recipe, something yummy to feed the family without taking so long. I followed the recipe as written except didn't know what to do with the basil so I added it under the sliced tomato's. Thank so much for a yummy recipe Chef1MOM~Connie
     
  2. This was delish! I left out the tomato and onion, used low-fat cheese, and whole wheat pasta. So easy, and so good! It's a keeper!
     
  3. This recipe is great. I used recipe #45507 for the sauce and not having fiesta cheese, used a combination of shredded mozarella and sharp cheddar. The chicken was very moist and full of flavor. This was served with angel hair pasta and a side salad.
     
  4. We loved this dish so much! It's the perfect dinner for a busy weeknight! I love traditional chicken parm, but often don't have time to make it, so I relished the chance to try this quick version. It really does taste like you've been cooking for hours. Very rich and flavourful!
     
  5. So easy and it came out so moist

<p><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j184/cjmcqb/Family/IMG_0556-1-1-2-2.jpg alt=width=58 height=116 /><br />I have been married to the most wonderful man for 34 years. He is my best friend and the love of my life, my soulmate, and everyday he makes me smile!&nbsp; We have two wonderful children, both adults, and both the loves of our lives.&nbsp; We are so proud of them!<br /><br />I want to say <strong>THANK YOU</strong>&nbsp; <img title=Laughing src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-laughing.gif border=0 alt=Laughing />&nbsp; to all of you who try my recipes. I may not always get back with a Thank you in writing but I want you to know I do thank you very much. I appreciate any and all comments, it can only help me learn and become a better chef. <br /><br />I love to travel and see anything and everything. When summer comes, I am off to see. DH and I traveled across country several times and our children are seasoned travelers as well. Road Trip are 2 of my favorite words. The kids and I have done a few trips as well down the eastern seaboard and there are plans for more. Both DD and DS are gypsies as well and think nothing of taking a road trip to visit home or each other. LOVE IT <br /><br />I live in Western New York and love it here, snow and all. I am a special education teacher and enjoy my career. The sense of wonder and gratification comes daily. My favorite pastime is spending time with my family! I also love to read, listen to music and watch good movies. We have Friday night pizza night here, which means I do not cook! I love Friday's. I started this custom when my children were small and we would cuddle on the floor and play games together and eat pizza. (Highly recommended for all moms out there, dads too.) I LOVE THAT! <br /><br />My favorite cookbook has changed since I came to Zaar, it is now the Zaarworld cookbook. I can get everything I need here and then some, to cook up meals for family and friends. One passion of mine is to cook homestyle meals for family and friends, holiday dinners, and baking bread. <br />My pet peeve is rudeness. INTOLERABLE! <br /><br />Some of the Contests and Swaps I have participated in and thoroughly enjoyed! <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/final2_1.jpg
