Chicken Parmesan As Made By Chris Nasatrini Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Cut the chicken breasts in half widthwise to make 4 thin breasts.
• Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and onion powder.
• Coat the chicken in flour, then egg, and then bread crumbs.
• Pour oil in a cast-iron skillet to come ¼ inch (½ cm) up the side. Heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and fry on both sides until brown, about 4 minutes.
• Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).
• Place the fried chicken breasts in a baking dish. If they don't fit side by side, gently overlap them. Pour the marinara over the chicken.
• Top with mozzarella slices and Parmesan.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is browned and bubbling.
• Serve with freshly chopped basil.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Make the red sauce: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until golden brown and nearly translucent, 5-7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the onion and garlic from the pot, leaving the oil behind. Set aside the fried onion and garlic for another dish.
• Add the oregano and thyme and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add the crushed tomatoes, sugar, and salt. Bring the sauce to boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 20-30 minutes, until thickened.
• Meanwhile, make the chicken: Working 1 at a time, place the chicken thighs in a zip-top bag and use a heavy skillet or meat mallet to pound into thin, even pieces.
• Add the eggs to a shallow dish and beat with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Add flour to a separate shallow dish and season with salt and pepper.
• In a third shallow dish, whisk together the plain and panko bread crumbs. Add the coarsely grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, parsley flakes, salt, and pepper and stir to incorporate.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Coat each piece in the flour, then the eggs, then the bread crumbs. Set the thighs on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to rest for 10 minutes before frying.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Heat the olive oil in a large, wide skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 300°F (150°C).
• Working in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the pan, fry the chicken thighs in the hot oil for 3-5 minutes per side, until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and season with salt.
• Transfer the fried chicken thighs to a clean baking sheet. Top each piece with ½ cup of the red sauce and the shredded Italian cheese blend.
• Bake the chicken for 5-10 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly.
• While the chicken bakes, add the spaghetti to the boiling water and cook until al dente.
• Warm the remaining red sauce in the pot over medium-low heat. Transfer the spaghetti directly into the sauce and toss well, adding a bit of the pasta cooking water as needed to help the sauce cling to the noodles. Add some of fresh basil leaves to the pasta and toss to incorporate.
• Add the spaghetti and chicken Parmesan to a serving plate. Top with the grated Parmesan cheese and garnish with more basil leaves.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (215°C).
• In a medium bowl, combine the panko, parmesan cheese, basil, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.
• Beat the 2 eggs in a shallow dish. Dredge the chicken in the egg wash, then coat with the bread crumb mixture.
• Transfer the breaded chicken breasts to a greased roasting pan. Top the chicken with 2 small slices of mozzarella.
• Bake for 20-25 min, until the cheese and bread crumbs have turned golden brown and the chicken is cooked through, or until it has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (73°C).
• Serve with whole wheat spaghetti, marinara sauce, and a sprinkle of fresh basil.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Using the bumpy side of a meat mallet, pound each chicken breast until ½-inch (1 ¼ cm) thick. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
• Add 1 cup (125 G) of flour, the eggs, and the plain bread crumbs to 3 separate shallow dishes.
• Season flour with salt, pepper, and the lemon zest. Stir to combine.
• Season the eggs with salt and pepper, and add 1 tablespoon of white wine. Stir to combine.
• To the bread crumbs, add the panko, remaining 2 tablespoons flour, and Parmesan. Stir to combine.
• Working 1 piece at a time, coat the chicken in the flour, shaking off any excess, then in the egg mixture, then in the bread crumbs. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with cling wrap and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
• Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add enough olive oil to come ¼ inch (6 mm) up the sides of the pan. Working in batches, fry the chicken until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Wipe out the pan with a paper towel. Return to medium heat and add 3 tablespoons of olive oil, the garlic, red pepper flakes, and bay leaves. Cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Add the remaining cup of white wine and the chicken stock. Cook until the liquid is reduced by half, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the crushed tomatoes and tomato paste. Season with pepper, then add the oregano, crushing between your hands to release more flavor. Simmer the sauce for 5 minutes, until thickened slightly. Add the parsley and basil and stir to incorporate.
• Remove the bay leaves from the pan. Create a bit of space in the center, then return the chicken to the pan. Spoon the sauce over the chicken.
• Sprinkle the mozzarella and more oregano over the chicken pieces.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and melted and the chicken is cooked though. Set the broiler to high and broil for 1-2 minutes, until the cheese browns lightly.
• Serve the chicken with spaghetti that's been tossed in the excess sauce. Garnish with parsley and Parmesan cheese.
• Enjoy!

• In a hot pan, add olive oil and cook chicken breast. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Remove the chicken and slice.
• Combine the chicken and pesto sauce into spaghetti and mix until the sauce fully coats the pasta.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Pour in olive oil and allow to get hot. Add onion and garlic and stir for 2 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes. Stir in chicken broth, red wine, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, and sugar. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens, about 15 minutes. Stir in chopped basil at the last minute.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil while sauce is cooking. Cook rigatoni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 13 minutes. Drain.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and flatten with a meat mallet to 1/4-inch thickness.
• Prepare a breading station with 3 large mixing bowls: Combine flour, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in the first bowl. Stir together eggs and milk in the second bowl. Combine bread crumbs, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon oregano, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in the third bowl.
• Dredge each piece of chicken in flour mixture and shake off excess. Dip into egg mixture and coat with bread crumbs. Repeat steps for remaining chicken and set on a plate.
• Heat about 1 inch canola oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add breaded chicken in batches; cook until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to the baking sheet. Sprinkle the top with mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) and the cheeses have melted, about 5 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce and rigatoni.
