Chicken Parmesan is an easy recipe to make in a pinch. Serve Chicken Parmesan over pasta or with steamed veggies for an easy dinner recipe, or reuse chicken cutlets for an easy leftovers recipe. For this Chicken Parmesan recipe, you'll need to prepare easy chicken cutlets first (see resources). Follow these easy steps and enjoy your Chicken Parmesan!

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• chicken cutlets
• tomato sauce
• shredded mozzarella cheese
• grated Parmesan cheese
• Pyrex baking dish
• 1 tbsp basil
• 1 tbsp oregano
• box of pasta

1. Prepare the "Easy Chicken Cutlets Recipe" according to recipe instructions (see resources). The "Easy Chicken Cutlets Recipe" is extremely easy to make, and the chicken cutlets can serve as the basis for Chicken Sandwiches, Chicken Salad, or in this case, Chicken Parmesan. The "Easy Chicken Cutlets Recipe" takes about 20-25 minutes to prepare.

2. While preparing the "Easy Chicken Cutlets Recipe", preheat oven to 350 degrees.

3. Arrange prepared chicken in a shallow Pyrex baking dish. Chicken should be very close together and touching, but not overlapping.

4. Pour tomato sauce over chicken until all chicken is completely covered. I like to use a chunky veggie sauce to add more vegetables to this recipe.

5. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese generously over chicken. For a healthier recipe, use low-fat mozzarella and Parmesan.

6. Place baking dish in oven and cook for 15 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and melted.

7. Remove from oven. Serve Chicken Parmesan over spaghetti or pasta. Wasn't that an easy recipe?

Tips & Warnings

• I will often make a big batch of Chicken Cutlets, then use them throughout the week for different recipes (see resources) - Chicken Parmesan, Chicken Cacciatore Sandwiches, Chicken Salads, and Chicken Parmesan. It's always useful to have Chicken Cutlets on hand.
• You can reduce the fat in this recipe by using low-fat cheese.
