Chicken Parmesan

Pre-heat oven to 350*F and prep your ingredients.

Get 3 separate plates for Egg wash, crumbs and flour.

Slice your chicken breast in half so they're all about the same thickness. Salt and pepper both sides and dip in the flour first and stack all together on a tray. Then dip in your egg wash and then immediately after your crumb mixture (I use Italian Bread Crumbs) then place on a separate sheet pan ready for cooking. Once you have completed this process for all chicken slices, wash your hands and clean up your mess since we're now done with this step. I find it's easier to clean as you go cause this will create quite a mess. In a large pan lightly coat the bottom with olive oil and on medium-high heat once the oil has heated up (about 1-2 minutes) you can start sauteing your chicken until the outside is golden brown to your liking. Then put on a clean baking sheet until all have been cooked. Before placing them in the oven you will grate some lemon zest over all the pieces, put some fresh mozzarella cheese slices on them and sprinkled parmesan cheese over and finish with some fresh cracked pepper over each piece. Bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until cheese is melted and lightly golden in spots. Serve with speghetti and sauce or I really love tomato basil soup (which most grocery stores make pre-made in the deli section) with my chicken parmesan because it's AMAZING to dip your chicken in. Enjoy!
