John's Chicken Parm
Our family loves this recipe. It is simple and easy to make.
Prepare a plate of bread crumbs and add:
-garlic
-grated cheese (parmisan)
Prepare 2 eggs, beaten with a little water add:
-garlic
-basil
-oregano
-parsley
Then mix all these together.
Prepare a plate with flour on it.
Flaten chicken breasts (place in plastic wrap and use
wooden mallet or fist). We make them about 3/8" thick.
Cook the chicken by doing the following:
- Dip chicken in flour
- Dip in egg mixture (keeping one dry hand & one wet hand)
- Dip in bread crumbs
- Fry in olive oil in frying pan about 3-5 minutes on a side (they are golden brown when done)
If you have many keep them warm in the oven: put a layer of tomato sauce on bottom of pan, put chicken on sauce and put in oven to keep warm (170 degrees).
When ready to serve put mozzarella on chicken and replace in oven (still at 170 degrees).
Cook pasta.
Heat extra sauce for serving.
Serve when cheese melted.
If just cooking it all in a frying pan (no heating in the oven):
- Fry up the chicken,
- add sauce to pan & slide sauce under chicken,
- cover chicken with cheese,
- cover pan to help melt.
