restaurant style chicken parmesan

How To Make restaurant style chicken parmesan

• 
  Step 1
  Butterfly the chicken breasts so the pieces are reasonably consistent in thickness. Separate tenderloin if necessary.
• Step 2
  Scramble the eggs in a bowl
• 
  Step 3
  Spread 1 cup of the breadcrumbs on a plate
• Step 4
  Heat about 1/4 inch of olive oil in a sauce pan over medium-high heat
• Step 5
  Dip a piece of chicken in the scrambled egg, allowing excess to drip off the meat
• 
  Step 6
  Roll the chicken in the breadcrumbs until all sides are covered
• Step 7
  Add chicken breast to the pan and brown on both sides - about 1-2 mins per side. Note - chicken will not be fully cooked during this step - and that's fine :)!
• Step 8
  Repeat steps 5-7 as often as necessary to cook all chicken pieces. This will depend on the size of your pan. Note that you should change out your olive oil after every 'pan full' of chicken and add breadcrumbs to your plate as needed.
• 
  Step 9
  Cover a baking sheet with foil and spread a thin layer of sauce on the foil
• Step 10
  Arrange a single 'layer' of chicken on the baking sheet
• Step 11
  Cover chicken evenly with sauce - you want enough coverage that the chicken won't dry out, but not so much that it is 'swimming' in sauce.
• 
  Step 12
  Sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly over chicken
• Step 13
  Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly over chicken
• Step 14
  Bake for 30 mins at 375. Serve with pasta side or on it's own - Makes a great sandwich too! Enjoy!!
