Chicken Parmesan Recipe

So I have a confession to make..

Up until two years ago I didn’t know how to cook. I mean I could cook but everything I made was nearly burnt to pieces. I didn’t know anything about seasoning, marinating, temperature, nothing what so ever. I had this fear of giving my family food poisoning so I cooked everything dry. Like the meat would be so tough, hubby used to kindly put it to side of his plate. I can laugh about it now but at the time it wasn’t funny.

Want to know the first dish I made without over cooking? Chicken Parmesan. And guess what? We all loved it, even the kids! It was the first time my son called me a good cook. I was so excited that I made this for dinner about once a week for the next month. The good thing is we all still love it.

So a few days ago when I was out of dinner ideas I knew this was my go to meal.

Here’s the recipe for Chicken Parmesan.

Ingredients:

Boneless chicken breast

3/4 c bread crumbs

1 tsp Italian seasoning

1/4 cup Parmesan cheese

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Mozzarella cheese

Marinara sauce

1-2 tbsp oil

Salt and pepper

Cut chicken breast in half. Combine bread crumbs, seasoning, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Heat oil in a skillet. Dip chicken into egg then into bread mixture. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side then transfer to an oven safe pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes then pour marinara sauce on top. Let the sauce warm up then top with mozzarella cheese and bake until cheese is melted.
