 CHICKEN PARMESANA




Chicken Parmigiana, also known as Chicken Parmesan, is a delicious Italian-American dish that features breaded and fried chicken cutlets topped with marinara sauce and melted cheese. Here's a step-by-step recipe to make tasty Chicken Parmigiana at home:


Ingredients:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably seasoned)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup marinara sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)
  • Olive oil, for frying

Instructions:

step by step to make recipe:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

`1.Flatten the chicken breasts: Place each chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the chicken until it's about 1/2-inch thick. This will ensure even cooking.

2.Season the chicken: Sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

3.Set up the breading station: In separate shallow dishes, place the flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.


4.Bread the chicken: Dip each chicken breast into the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, press the chicken into the breadcrumb-Parmesan mixture, coating it thoroughly on both sides.

5.Fry the chicken: In a large skillet, heat enough olive oil over medium-high heat to cover the bottom of the pan. Fry the breaded chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. You may need to cook them in batches if your pan is not big enough. Once done, place the fried chicken on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

6.Assemble the dish: In a baking dish, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce. Place the fried chicken breasts on top of the sauce. Spoon more marinara sauce over the chicken, covering them completely.



Add the cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the chicken breasts, covering them evenly.

Bake: Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.



Garnish and serve: Remove the dish from the oven, and if desired, garnish with fresh basil leaves. Serve the Chicken Parmigiana with pasta, salad, or crusty bread.

watering dish that's sure to impress your family and friends!
