Chicken Parmesan
Takes 40 minutes
Makes 4 servings
4 boneless chicken breasts, skins removed
2 medium eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 1/2 cups diced tomatoes with Italian herbs
1/2 (190 gram) block mozzarella
Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
Oil, for pan frying
1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F/200 degrees C.
2
On a cutting board, season chicken breasts with salt and ground black pepper to taste. Set aside.
3
Prepare breading station: In one shallow plate, add flour. Lightly season with salt and ground black pepper. In another shallow plate, break then beat eggs. Lightly season with salt and ground pepper. In a third shallow plate, mix panko and parmesan cheese. Set aside.
4
Dredge a chicken breast into the flour, then dip into the egg, then finally roll in the panko mixture. Set aside on a parchment-lined tray. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.

Heat enough oil in a frying pan over medium heat for pan frying. Once hot, pan-fry each chicken breast until they turn light golden brown on both sides. (No need to completely cook chicken through as it will be baked again.) Set aside on a rack over paper towels and repeat with remaining chicken breasts until the chicken is golden brown in color. Set aside.

In a baking dish, spread a layer of the diced tomatoes. Place chicken breasts on top of the tomatoes. Grate mozzarella over each chicken breast.
