Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

  • 1 egg

  • ½ cup seasoned bread crumbs

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 1 ¾ cups pasta sauce (such as Barilla Napoletana®)

  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions

  1. Press chicken breasts with the palm of your hand to flatten to an even thickness.

  2. Beat egg into a shallow bowl; place bread crumbs into a separate shallow bowl. Dip each chicken breast into beaten egg and press into bread crumbs to coat.

  3. Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat and fry coated chicken breasts until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side.

  4. Pour pasta sauce over chicken, cover, and bring sauce to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Sprinkle chicken with mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and parsley. Cover and simmer until cheeses melt, about 5 more minutes.
