Skillet Parmesan chicken Recipe #39900
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.

- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
