Quick, “In a Hurry” CHICKEN PARMESAN
Table of Contents: CHICKEN/POULTRY
I think that you will find this recipe very good, particularly considering the amount of time required to make it. We don’t always have to be Julia Child! As if I had ever, ever come close to such an aspiration…… she was quite the fascinating lady. Don’t you agree?
4 to 6 chicken breasts, or the same poundage in already-cut chicken tenders
Salt
½ jar (12-oz.) prepared Italian, tomato-based pasta sauce (your favorite brand)
6 to 9 slices mozzarella cheese
Italian breadcrumbs
Grated Parmesan cheese
Slice the chicken breasts into chicken tenders; then wash and pat dry with paper towels. Salt the tenders and place into a spray-oiled baking dish.
Evenly spread the pasta sauce over the tops of the tenders. Evenly place the mozzarella cheese slices as the next layer; then sprinkle Italian breadcrumbs on top of the cheese. Finally, sprinkle with a medium amount of Parmesan
cheese.
Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to check chicken doneness. This will prevent undercooking the chicken, or drying-out the chicken by overcooking.
