Skillet Parmesan chicken
By: PanNan

This is real comfort food. A family favorite. If you can, buy the fresh mozzarella. You won't believe the difference and it's worth it. The texture isn't rubbery like the typical mozzarella. I got it from watching an Emeril show on the Food Network.
SERVES 4
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
- salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/2 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- more parmesan cheese, for sprinkling on top
- 4 ounces sliced mozzarella cheese (if you can get it, the soft fresh kind is best - it melts sooooo creamy)
- your favorite marinara sauce or store bought spaghetti sauce
Directions
1
Pound the chicken breasts between two slices of plastic wrap until about 1/4" thick.2
Season with salt and pepper.3
Dredge chicken in flour and shake off excess.4
Dip in egg/milk mixture, then in breadcrumb/Parmesan mixture.5
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large deep skillet.6
Brown the chicken breasts over medium heat until golden on each side (about 2-3 min per side).7
Remove to a plate and keep warm.8
Add the marinara sauce to the skillet.9
Heat to boiling and simmer 10 minutes.10
Add the chicken breasts to the sauce and sprinkle Parmesan over them.11
Place a slice of mozzarella on each piece of chicken.12
Cover and simmer about 8- 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the chicken is tender.13
Serve with your favorite pasta- we like linguine.

This recipe is amazing. it was super easy to make and extremely delicious. My picky brother practically inhaled he's serving. Had there been seconds, I'm sure he would have had more. This is definitely something I'm going to make again.

Very tasty and easier than the "old way" of making Chicken Parmesan. I used fresh mozzarella and bought some freshly grated Parmesan (not the canned stuff!) just for this. My daughter went ga-ga over it, and so did I. Very, very good. I used fresh linguine and we had Italian Asiago crusted bread along side - with butter, of course. Thanks for the great Monday night meal.

Ok everyone, throw out all your other chicken parm recipes--this is the only one you need. Fabulous! I cut the chicken into fillets rather than pounding out. Way easier and less messy, I think, lol. This is fast, easy, and delicious! Try to use fresh shredded parmesan if possible. What flavor! We had this with some tortellini on the side, and a fresh green salad. Even my kids liked this, so we'll be having this often. Thanks for a great recipe PanNan!
