    Chicken Parmesan

    Recipe Introduction


    My daughter, Jessica, made this one. It's a very light dish - pan sauteed, not deep fried. Delicious.


    List of Ingredients


    • 3 tablespoons olive oil
    • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
    • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
    • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
    • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
    • 8 (3-ounces each) chicken cutlets
    • 1 1/2 cups Simple Tomato Sauce, recipe follows or purchased marinara sauce
    • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
    • 16 teaspoons grated Parmesan
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces


    Instructions


    1. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.


    2. Stir the oil and herbs in a small bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Brush both sides of the cutlets with the herb oil. Heat a heavy large oven-proof skillet over high heat. Add the cutlets and cook just until brown, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the skillet from the heat.


    3. Spoon the marinara sauce over and around the cutlets. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of mozzarella over each cutlet, then sprinkle 2 teaspoons of Parmesan over each. Sprinkle the butter pieces atop the cutlets. Bake until the cheese melts and the chicken is cooked through, about 3 to 5 minutes.
