Chicken Parmesan accompanied by PASTA

Posted by magnafoodie on

At the pizza shops where I’m from I see a lot of people ordering chicken parmesan sandwiches or even chicken parmesan meals which come with pasta. Me personally I’ve never ordered that at a restaurant I consider it to be so basic to cook why order it ? lol or maybe its just me but either way I think the recipe is pretty easy so why not share it with you guys. (Kanye shrug)

Lets get to it these are the things you will need

  1. Thinly sliced chicken breast
  2. (plain) bread crumbs
  3. adobo (red top) black pepper, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper flakes, garlic powder all for seasoning
  4. 2 eggs cracked and beaten ( lol not as harsh as it sounds
  5. oil for frying I used canola
  6. box of spaghetti noodles
  7. pasta sauce
  8. salt and pepper

First things first season your cleaned chicken breast with adobo (half tsp), black pepper (half tsp), garlic powder (half tsp). You can season your chicken the day before or the same day.

In a plate add your bread crumbs and in a bowl add your cracked and beaten eggs. Add oil to a pan to fry chicken breast. Start by dipping your seasoned chicken in beaten egg then dip it in the bread crumbs making sure to coat both sides completely. Fry for about 2 minutes per side and drain off any excess oil.

While the chicken is frying start cooking your pasta, add water to pot till it boils and add salt. When water begins to boil add pasta and some olive oil and cook till al dente about 12 min. Drain pasta and set aside.

In a baking dish add pasta sauce to the bottom so that its covered then place chicken breast on top of pasta sauce.

Set your oven to 380 degrees and add spoonful of sauce on top of each piece of chicken and top with cheese preferably mozzarella but all I had was cheddar so that’s what I used.

(A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do) top it off with some parsley and cover baking dish with foil. Continue cooking chicken in oven for 14 min.

Now time to finish cooking pasta add butter, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, black pepper, fresh parsley and drizzle some olive oil. Put the fire on a very low flame so that the butter melts and toss the pasta to incorporate all the seasonings.

Remove the chicken from the oven and plate your food with pasta first chicken breast and sauce on top and your done.

Bon Appetit 🙂
