A delightful twist on the classic Chicken Parmesan, this recipe offers a crispy, flavorful experience while keeping it light and easy to prepare.
Prepare the chicken by trimming any excess fat and patting it dry.
Use a meat mallet to ensure even thickness for uniform cooking.
Place the chicken between wax paper sheets and gently pound to flatten slightly.
Flattening the chicken ensures it cooks evenly and quickly.
Rub the chicken with Italian dressing and let it marinate while preparing the coating.
Marinating adds flavor and helps the coating adhere better.
Combine bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt in a bowl.
Mix thoroughly to ensure even seasoning distribution.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and spray with cooking spray.
Ensure the pan is hot before adding the chicken to achieve a crispy crust.
Dredge the chicken in the bread crumb mixture and cook in the pan until golden on both sides.
Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Top each chicken piece with tomato sauce, Parmesan, and mozzarella. Cover and cook until the cheese melts.
Covering the pan helps the cheese melt evenly.
Serve hot with your favorite sides and enjoy!
Garnish with fresh basil for a burst of flavor and color.
