CHICKEN STOVE-TOP PARMESAN CASSEROLE
I just made this up today. Had two chicken breasts I had to use. It's too hot to even think about turning on the oven. And we needed the potassium from the potatoes. Turned out pretty good.

STOVE TOP PARMESAN CHICKEN
Steps:
- 1. Dip chicken pieces in slightly beaten eggs, then dip in bread crumbs.
- 2. Fry in skillet on stovetop in "I Can't Believe It's Butter" spray (no calories!) on medium high heat until brown. Turn down heat, cook until done in center.
- 3. When done, pour small jar of Barilla's Spicy Marinara sauce over chicken. Cook on low until sauce is thoroughly heated. (At this point, you can also transfer it to a baking dish and put in the oven if you want to slow it down a little bit). The acid in the marinara sauce makes the chicken VERY tender.
- 4. Top with shredded parmesan cheese (not the powder) and shredded mozzarella. (I mix the two together before putting on chicken).
- 5. Cook, (covered) until cheese is melted. Serve with a veggie and salad and you have dinner!
Tips:
- Use a large skillet or sauté pan to ensure that the chicken breasts have enough space to cook evenly.
- Make sure the chicken breasts are pounded to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. This will help them cook more evenly.
- Use a combination of olive oil and butter to cook the chicken. This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan and will also add flavor.
- Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to enhance their flavor.
- Cook the chicken breasts over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the chicken will not cook evenly.
- Once the chicken breasts are cooked, remove them from the pan and set aside. Keep them warm while you make the parmesan sauce.
- To make the parmesan sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. Gradually whisk in the milk and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the parmesan cheese until melted. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour the parmesan sauce over the cooked chicken breasts and serve immediately.
Conclusion:
Stove-top Parmesan Chicken is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The chicken breasts are cooked in a flavorful combination of olive oil and butter, then topped with a creamy parmesan sauce. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as pasta, rice, or vegetables.
