This is super easy!
Ingredients to shop for:
4-6 boneless/skinless chicken breasts for your family
Seasoned bread crumbs
1 Jar of marinara sauce
Pasta of your choice we use rotini (spiral pasta), but spaghetti works great
I like to use a meat tenderizer and pound on the chicken a bit. This is good to get the frustrations of the day out! But remember to only pound the chicken to about 1/2 thickness, don't get carried away!
Pour bread crumbs in a shallow bowl or on a plate. (Some people like to first spread an egg on the chicken, I don't do this.) Coat both sides of chicken breasts.
To fry, heat enough olive oil or vegetable oil to coat the bottom of your fry pan. Brown both sides of the chicken. This takes about 3-4 minutes per side.
Bake in oven at 350 degrees until chicken is cooked through, I use a meat thermometer, usually 25-30 minutes.
Serve over cooked pasta with warm marinara sauce. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top.
Want a tasty variation? Add mozzarella slices to the top of chicken before baking.
Need a good side to go with this? Try french bread from the bakery and a can of green beans.
