CHICKEN PARMESAN

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Place chicken breasts between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/2-inch. Season chicken thoroughly with salt and pepper.
• Beat eggs in a shallow bowl and set aside.
• Mix bread crumbs and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese in a separate bowl, set aside.
• Place flour in a sifter or strainer; sprinkle over chicken breasts, evenly coating both sides.
• Dip flour coated chicken breast in beaten eggs. Transfer breast to breadcrumb mixture, pressing the crumbs into both sides. Repeat for each breast. Set aside breaded chicken breasts for about 15 minutes.
• Heat 1 cup olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer. Cook chicken until golden, about 2 minutes on each side. The chicken will finish cooking in the oven.
• Place chicken in a baking dish and top each breast with about 1/3 cup of tomato sauce. Layer each chicken breast with equal amounts of mozzarella cheese, fresh basil, and provolone cheese. Sprinkle 1 to 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese on top and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is browned and bubbly, and chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

SPICY BREADED CHICKEN CUTLETS

Steps:

• Start by preparing the chicken. Each chicken breast gets cut in half horizontally and pounded down with a mallet or skillet. Use plastic or parchment paper to surround the cutlets when pounding them down. Ideally you end up with four even thickness chicken cutlets.
• Add the listed spice mixture ingredients to a bowl and combine well. (Keep in mind that there's lots of leeway on the spice mixture so feel free to use what you have.)
• Combine the spice mixture with 2 cups of bread crumbs and 1/2 cup of crumbled Cotija cheese.
• Your cutlet assembly line will have three stops. The first is a plate with 1/2 cup of flour, followed by a bowl with 2 whisked eggs, and then the seasoned breadcrumbs. Dredge each cutlet in the flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs. Be sure to push the breadcrumbs into the chicken to create an even layer.
• Heat up a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a thin layer of oil (you can optionally add a knob of butter). When the pan is hot cook the chicken cutlets for 2-3 minutes per side.
• Let the chicken rest for a few minutes and then serve immediately.

Salt and pepper to your taste. Boil spaghetti in a large pan of water. Cook according to the package. Drain the pasta after cooked and discard the water. DO NOT RINSE! Set cooked pasta aside. Add the tomatoes, soup, and spaghetti to the sautéed chicken, onion and green pepper mixture and gently fold. Add the cheese and stir together, mixing well add salt and pepper to your taste. Heat until cheese is thoroughly melted, but be careful not to BURN. Garnish with fresh grated Parmesan cheese and serve with salad and garlic bread!

• In 3 separate shallow bowls put enough flour (seasoned with salt and pepper) to lightly dredge the chicken in one bowl, 2 beaten eggs in the second and the Panko bread crumbs mixed with the taco seasoning in the 3rd.
• In the following order for each breast: dredge in the seasoned flour shaking off excess, put them next into the eggs to moisten each side and then into the Panko/taco seasoning mixture making sure to coat the chicken breast entirely. Set the prepared chicken breasts aside for a few minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the Canola oil to a large enough skillet to fit all 4 breasts and preheat the pan over med/high heat.
• Cook each breast until lightly browned on each side and remove from the pan. The chicken does not have to be cooked through as it will continue cooking in the oven.
