Easy Chicken Parmesan Recipe

Easy Chicken Parmesan - this quick dinner recipe is totally foolproof. The chicken comes out moist every time! It's the BEST chicken parmesan recipe we've ever had.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts ( (about 2 full breasts))
  • ¾ cup breadcrumbs ((can reduce to ½ to lower the carbs))
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup pasta sauce (any flavor)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Pasta (for serving)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray a 9x9” pan with nonstick cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Depending on the sizes of your chicken breasts, slice each longwise into 4-6 ounce pieces.  Place breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese in a shallow dish and stir.

  3. 3

    Place each chicken breast into the breadcrumb mixture to thoroughly coat both sides. Place in pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until they start to look done and crispy.

  4. 4

    Remove hot pan from the oven and top with pasta sauce and mozzarella cheese. Return to oven and bake an additional 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and chicken is cooked through. Serve over pasta, if desired. We also like to serve this with just a salad for a lower carb meal.
