CHICKEN PARMIGIANA (PARMESAN)
INGREDIENTS
For the Chicken
6 thin-sliced chicken cutlets
2 cups Italian seasoned breadcrumbs - seasoned with 3 tablespoons grated parmesan
1 cup flour - seasoned with 1 tsp kosher salt and 1/2 tsp pepper
3 eggs - beaten
Olive oil - for frying
1 1/2 - 2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese - divided
For the sauce
1 (28) ounce can high quality plum tomatoes - blender pulsed
½ teaspoon dry oregano
4 cloves garlic - minced
¼ cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt - plus more to taste
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes - optional
SAUCE INSTRUCTIONS
1. In a saucepan saute the garlic in a ¼ cup of olive oil over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes or until lightly golden. Add in the hot red pepper flakes and cook for 30 seconds more.
2. Add the tomatoes, stir together, and bring the sauce to a simmer. Season with salt and oregano.
3. Taste test it, and adjust salt and pepper if required. When satisfied set the sauce aside.
FRYING AND ASSEMBLING CHICKEN PARMIGIANA
1. Dredge the cutlets in the flour and shake off excess, then dip into the egg, and then into the breadcrumbs. Place the breaded cutlets onto parchment paper.
2. Pour the olive a ½-¾” high into a large frying pan and heat oil to 370f. The burner should be set to about medium heat and take about 5-7 minutes to get to 370f.
3. Test the oil and then fry the cutlets for 2-3 minutes per side and place finished cutlets on a wire rack so that they don’t become soggy.
4. In a nonstick baking sheet spread the cutlets out and place a few tablespoons of the sauce onto them, then a ¼ cup or so of the mozzarella cheese and finally a couple tablespoons of the parmesan cheese on top.
5. Bake the cutlets at 450 for 2-3 minutes, then broil for 30-60 seconds to melt the cheese. When finished grate some more parmesan onto the hot chicken parmigiana. Serve with the extra sauce on the side. Enjoy!
