Chicken Parmesan with Spaghetti
Chicken Parmesan with Spaghetti is a classic Italian-American dish that is loved by many. This dish is a perfect combination of crispy breaded chicken, tangy tomato sauce, and melted mozzarella cheese served over a bed of spaghetti.
To make this delicious dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/2 cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup tomato sauce
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked spaghetti
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. Then, pound the chicken breast until it is an even thickness. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Next, set up a breading station with three bowls. In the first bowl, add the flour. In the second bowl, beat the egg. In the third bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.
Dredge the chicken in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then, dip the chicken in the egg, making sure it is fully coated. Finally, coat the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing the breadcrumbs onto the chicken to ensure they stick.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of oil. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and top with tomato sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
While the chicken is baking, cook the spaghetti according to package instructions.
To serve, place the cooked spaghetti on a plate and top with the chicken Parmesan. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
This Chicken Parmesan with Spaghetti dish is a perfect combination of crispy, cheesy, and saucy. The chicken is tender and juicy, while the spaghetti is perfectly cooked and coated in the delicious tomato sauce. The melted mozzarella cheese adds a creamy and savory flavor to the dish.
