Ingredients

24 ounce Chicken Breast four 6 ounce boneless skinless breasts, lightly pounded

8 ounce Mozzarella Cheese shredded

12 ounce Spaghetti Sauce

2 teaspoon Parsley finely chopped

1 cup Flour seasoned with sea salt and black pepper

2 cup Bread Crumbs Italian seasoned or your choice

2 large Eggs

2 ounce Water or milk, mixed with egg to make egg wash

Vegetable Oil for frying chicken cutlets

Equipment

Plastic wrap

Oven

Large saute pan

Baking racks

Baking dish

Sheet pans

Meat hammer

Cutting board

Tongs

Instructions

Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board lined with plastic wrap. Cover the chicken with another sheet of plastic wrap and using a meat hammer lightly pound the chicken breasts.

Set up a breading station with flour seasoned with sea salt and black pepper, egg wash and Italian seasoned bread crumbs.

Coat the chicken breasts with the seasoned flour. Then place in the egg wash and finally in the bread crumbs. Make sure you get a good coating of each ingredient on the chicken breasts, completely coating them.

Heat a large saute pan on medium-high heat and add about a half an inch of vegetable oil. Carefully place the breaded chicken cutlets into the oil using tongs. Add as many as you can into your pan without crowding them. Let them saute until they get a nice golden brown color. Using tongs turn them over and saute the other side until golden brown.

Drain the fried chicken cutlets on baking racks over sheet pans (or baking sheets).

Place the fried chicken cutlets in a baking dish. Top each cutlet with about ⅓ cup of spaghetti sauce, covering the chicken cutlet.

Add two ounces of shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the marinara sauce.

Sprinkle the chopped parsley on top of the mozzarella cheese.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes or until the cheese is nicely melted. Make sure the fried chicken cutlet has reached a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees F.

Remove from the oven and serve immediately with your favorite pasta.
