Chicken Parmesan

I made this dish on my mom’s birthday, and as shown, I plated it perfectly! Anyways, chicken Parmesan may not be authentic but it is definitely a great way to surprise a loved one!

Ingredients:

-3 Chicken Breast

-2 Eggs

-3 pieces of sliced mozzarella

- 2 ½ cups of marinara sauce

- Cooked Pasta ( I used Penne)

-2 cups of Italian Style breadcrumbs

-1 cup of Parmesan Cheese

-Garlic Powder

-Salt

-Pepper

-Dried oregano

-Fresh basil ( to garnish)

Steps:

Step #1: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. On a plate combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano.

Step #2: In a bowl, mix together the eggs and spices from earlier. Dip the chicken into the egg mixture then into the breadcrumb mixture. Move the chicken on to a greased baking pan.

Step #3: Bake the chicken for about 15 minutes then take it out, put a slice of Mozzarella, then put it back in for the last 15-20 minutes. It depends on the thickness of the chicken.

Step #4: Once chicken has reached an internal temperature of 160, place it on top of a bed of pasta. Then add Marinara sauce and more cheese! Thinly slice some fresh basil and add it to the top. Enjoy!💙
