Baked Parmesan Chicken For Two Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Lightly spray a pie plate or a foil-lined baking sheet with cooking spray; set aside.
• Combine Parmesan, breadcrumbs, and salt in a shallow dish (I use a paper plate). Place egg in a separate shallow dish.
• Dip each side of each chicken breast in egg, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture. Place on prepared pan.
• Bake for 18 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until done.
• Take the chicken out and switch the oven to BROIL.
• Divide the sauce evenly and pour over each piece of chicken. Sprinkle evenly with the mozzarella cheese.
• Broil 2 minutes or until the cheese melts.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a shallow baking pan or broiler pan with butter Crisco. Put buttermilk or mix your milk/vinegar into a small dish that will hold a chicken breast.
• 2. In a separate dish mix breading ingredients: Parmesan, panko, paprika, garlic powder, and thyme. You will have some left over, so pour about half of this into a dish (I use a bread pan)that will hold a chicken breast and then if you need more you can add some to this dish. Save the leftover breading for another time in a covered container and store in refrigerator (if you did not mix the chicken in it).
• 3. Dip a chicken breast into the buttermilk and let drip slightly to get the excess liquid off. Then into the breading panko mix. Cover completely on each side and place on pan. Repeat with the other breast.
• 4. Spray each breaded breast with butter Crisco and place into oven. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. These breast will be crispy and browned..add more or less minutes to time if the chicken is starting to get to brown. Remove from oven and turn over. Spray the breast with butter Crisco. Turn the oven down to 350 degrees. Return chicken to oven to brown the other side and finish baking. Bake for 15 more minutes, or until the temperature in the thickest part of the breast is 170 to 180 degrees.
• 5. Cook's note:I served acorn squash with this dish as a side. I added the halved acorn squash to the microwave the last 15 minutes while the chicken was baking. I also added warmed marinara sauce on my chicken breast, and my husband had his chicken without the sauce. Do not cover with foil to hold until dinner. The breading will become soggy from the steam.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Whisk water and egg together in a bowl until smooth. Combine bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, oregano, basil, thyme, and garlic powder in a separate bowl.
• Dip each chicken breast in egg mixture, allowing excess egg to drip back into bowl. Coat each chicken breast in bread crumb mixture, shaking off excess. Repeat dipping each coated chicken breast in the egg mixture and the bread crumb mixture for a double-coating and place in the prepared baking dish. Spray breaded chicken breasts with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Pour spaghetti sauce over each chicken breast and top each with mozzarella cheese and remaining Parmesan cheese. Continue baking until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the cheeses are melted, about 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
