Chicken Parmesan IV
4 boneless chicken breast halves
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
2 to 3 tbs extra-virgin olive oil
8 slices mozzarella cheese
24-oz jar pasta sauce
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
8-oz pasta, spaghetti or linguini
Heat the oven to 350°.
Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
Put the chicken breasts between sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound to about 1/2 inch in thickness.
Whisk together the egg and milk in a bowl.
Put the seasoned breadcrumbs in a different, wide, shallow bowl.
Dip the chicken breasts in milk and egg mixture and then in breadcrumbs, turning to coat thoroughly.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium-high heat.
Brown the chicken in the hot oil on both sides until golden brown, about 3 to 4 min on each side.

Arrange the chicken in the prepared baking dish.
Slice 8 pieces of mozzarella cheese and put two on each chicken breast. Pour 1 jar of favorite spaghetti sauce over all. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and a little more mozzarella and bake for about 25 to 30 min, or until bubbly.
Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti or linguine in boiling salted water following package directions. Drain well.
Serve with spaghetti, garlic bread, and a tossed green salad.

Serves 4
