Crispy chicken is treated to a jazzed-up sauce in this simple main dish that’s oh, so comforting and good. —Carol Heeren, Parker, South Dakota
Ingredients:
2 cans (8 ounces each) tomato sauce
2 teaspoons dried basil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
hot cooked angel hair pasta
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, combine the tomato sauce, basil and garlic powder; heat through.
2. Meanwhile, flatten chicken breasts to 1/4-in. thickness. In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, oregano and salt. In a separate shallow bowl, whisk eggs and water. Place flour in another shallow bowl. Coat chicken with flour, then dip in egg mixture and coat with bread crumb mixture.
3. In a large skillet, cook chicken in oil in batches for 4-6 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Spoon sauce over chicken; sprinkle with cheeses. Serve with pasta. Yield: 4 servings.
