Chicken Parmesan

A Specialty of Wayne

Going through high school, Wayne worked in an Italian restaurant. He learned to really appreciate a good Fettucini Alfredo. But he also learned how to make Chicken Parmesan. And that's what he fixed for my special Mother's Day dinner.

We had a jar of spaghetti sauce in the pantry, which he tasted and added seasonings to until it was just right.

The next step is to season some flour with salt and pepper, dredge the chicken breasts in it, and then sauté them in olive oil until browned.

Place the browned chicken on a cookie sheet and top with Mozzarella slices, some spaghetti sauce, and then grated Parmesan cheese.

Place under the broiler until the cheese melts, and you're finished!
  It was scrumptious!

Note: If there's not a jar of spaghetti sauce in the pantry, here's an easy one to make.

Marinara Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 14 ounces tomato puree
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
  • 1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
Heat oil and quickly sauté onion and garlic. Stir in remaining ingredients and cook for about 8 minutes.
