Always a favorite when we're at an Italian restaurant. Using homemade tomato sauce, makes this dish very low in sodium.
Ingredients
- 4 Cutlets of Three-Part Breaded Fried Chicken
- 1 Tbl Olive Oil
- 12 Garlic Cloves- Minced
- 1 Tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
- 4 Cups Homemade Tomato Sauce
- 2 Sprigs Fresh Oregano - Leaves chopped
- 1/4 Cup Fresh Basil - Chopped
- 16 Oz Linguine or Spaghetti Pasta
- 1/2 Cup Low Moisture Mozzarella Cheese - Shredded
- 2 Tbl Parmesan Cheese - Grated
- 2 Tbl Fresh Parsley - Chopped
Preparation
Step 1:
To prepare the sauce: Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a medium size sauce pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook for 30 seconds. Add the tomato sauce, oregano and basil. Cook until the sauce has thickened, about 25 to 30 minutes. If the sauce is too acidic, add sugar.
Step 2:
Preheat the oven to 400F degrees. After preparing the three-part breaded fried chicken, place the cooked chicken in a rimmed baking pan. Top each cutlet with 1/4 of the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. Place in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and the top has golden brown spots.
Step 3:
While the chicken is in the oven, cook the pasta noodles according to package instructions.
Step 4:
To assemble one serving of Chicken Parmesan, put down 1/8 of the pasta noodles, then top with half of a chicken cutlet. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and if desired, additional grated Parmesan cheese.
