SANDRA'S CHICKEN PARMIGIANA



Sandra's Chicken Parmigiana image

I'm posting this recipe on Australia Day 2007 as a tribute to an Australian friend, Sandra Woodhouse. She gave me this recipe in 1981-not long after I married an Australian. Don't let the number of ingredients or steps deter you. This is really easy. Sandra would have loved Recipezaar, but she died too young-and before she 'found' it. She lived in the USA for three or four years and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 large eggs, slightly beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 whole boneless skinless chicken breasts, split
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce (puree, or Italian tomatoes, which you should then crush)
1/2 teaspoon basil
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated (or more)
8 ounces mozzarella cheese, sliced thin and cut into triangles

Steps:

  • Flatten the chicken breasts with a mallet.
  • Then start to heat the oil in a large frying pan.
  • While the oil is heating, combine the eggs, salt and pepper.
  • Dip the breasts into the egg mixture, and then into breadcrumbs.
  • About now, start to preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • When the oil is hot, brown breasts on both sides, then drain them on paper towels.
  • Transfer breasts to a baking dish that will hold them all in one layer.
  • Drain all but 1 teaspoon of the remaining oil from frypan.
  • In the frypan, saute garlic for 1 minute, then add tomato sauce (puree) and basil, and bring to a boil.
  • Turn down and simmer for 10 minutes, then stir in butter.
  • Pour tomato mixture over chicken breasts, and sprinkle with parmesan.
  • Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
  • Uncover and put mozzarella slices neatly over chicken pieces.
  • Bake uncovered for another 10 minutes.
  • Serve and enjoy.
