Super Mom's Chicken Parmesan

Healthy and Quick Recipe

* Tip: Always Marinate your chicken in olive oil, lemon, onion powder and garlic powder. You can either prepare them 24 hours ahead and store them in the fridge or if you take one trip a month to the supermarket, marinate all your chicken and store them in the freezer.

Ingredients

  • 600 g halved, marinated boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 3 tbsp parmesan
  • 2 tbsp Canola oil
  • 400 g tomato sauce
  • 1 tbsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 150g Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1/4 tsp white pepper
  • Salt and Black Pepper to taste

Directions



cooking ingredients
 Prepare the breadcrumbs, black pepper, salt, 1 tbsp Parmesan and white pepper.


breadcrumbs mix 
Mix all in a bowl


coating chicken with breadcrumbs
 Coat chicken pieces with breadcrumbs mix.

cooking chicken
Preheat a pan.
Pour Canola Oil, and cook the chicken until golden brown.
Note that the excess of breadcrumbs might burn a little, but don't worry you can remove that excess. In the popular recipe, chicken is usually fried but to keep it light, I only use 2 tbsp of oil so we are practically baking and not frying which may burn some of the breadcrumbs.

preparing tomato sauce 
Meanwhile, prepare the tomato sauce: add 1 tbsp Parmesan, dried basil, salt, black pepper and garlic powder.
