Ingredients:
For the chicken:
- 2.5 lbs of chicken breast tenderloins
- 2 cups plain breadcrumbs
- 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 mozzarella cheese
For the sauce: (same as my spaghetti sauce, again all estimate measurements as far as seasonings)
- 2 cans Hunts tomato sauce (30 oz)
~ 3 tbsp water
~ 3 tbsp olive oil
~ 2 tsp salt
~ 2 tsp ground pepper (white or black)
~ 2 tbsp garlic powder
~ 2 tbsp ground Spanish paprika
~ 1 tbsp oregano
~ 1 tbsp basil
~ 1 tbsp sugar
Sides:
I suggest to serve the chicken over a bed of spaghetti and a side of broccoli!
-1/2 pkg angel hair pasta (about 4 oz)
~ 3 cups frozen broccoli
^ seasoned with salt, pepper, and lemon juice
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 450°
2. In a medium bowl combine the eggs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper beat the eggs completely.
3. Soak the chicken in the eggs until completely covered.
4. In a shallow pan (I used a pizza pan) mix together the breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese, take the eggs from the egg mixture and cover them in bread crumbs. pat the chicken to make sure the breadcrumb mixture has stuck. Repeat with the rest of the eggs and place in a pan, bake at 450° for 20 minutes.

| Before going into the oven, sprinkle a bit more breadcrumbs for extra crisp! |
5. In the meantime, combine all sauce ingredients in a small pot and stir occasionally over low-medium heat. Get the spaghetti and the broccoli going! (A good tip for the seasonings is if you can't see that it's seasoned add a bit more and taste it often to your liking!)
6. Once the 20 minutes is up carefully take the chicken out of the oven and spoon a bit of the sauce over each chicken breast, sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over all of them as well, continue to bake for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is nice and melted!
7. Use the rest of the sauce to mix into your spaghetti! Mix it well and use it as the bed of your chicken parmesan. Enjoy :)
