How to Make 20 Minute Chicken Parmesan
- Place chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs) between two sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap.
- Flatten each chicken breast to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
- In a shallow dish, whisk 2 large eggs. In a separate shallow dish, combine 1 1/2 cups Italian breadcrumbs with 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder.
- Dip each chicken breast in the egg, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Spoon 1 1/2 cups of your favorite spaghetti sauce over each chicken breast.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley over the chicken.
- Cover and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
