SKILLET CHICKEN PARMESAN

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 10 ounces each)
One 8-inch piece day-old baguette (about 4 ounces)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
One 15-ounce can tomato puree
1 small clove garlic, grated
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally to make 4 thin cutlets. Put between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or heavy skillet until 1/4-inch thick.
  • Cut any hard crusts off the bread with a serrated knife, then cut the bread into cubes. Add the bread cubes to a food processor with the motor running, a few pieces at a time, and process to make coarse crumbs (you will have about 1 1/4 cups crumbs).
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the breadcrumbs and cook, stirring, until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons parmesan and cook, stirring, until melted, about 1 more minute. Transfer to a bowl and stir in 2 tablespoons basil; set aside. Preheat the broiler.
  • Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; add to the skillet (in batches, if necessary) and cook until golden and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add the tomato puree, then rinse out the can with 1 cup water and add to the skillet. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes and 1 tablespoon parmesan; reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup basil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Return the chicken to the skillet, turning to coat with the sauce. Top with the remaining 1 tablespoon parmesan and all but a few tablespoons of the toasted breadcrumb mixture. Sprinkle with the mozzarella and the remaining breadcrumbs. Broil until the cheese melts, 1 to 2 minutes.

SKILLET PARMESAN CHICKEN



Skillet Parmesan Chicken image

This is real comfort food. A family favorite. If you can, buy the fresh mozzarella. You won't believe the difference and it's worth it. The texture isn't rubbery like the typical mozzarella. I got it from watching an Emeril show on the Food Network.

Categories     Chicken

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
salt and pepper
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
more parmesan cheese, for sprinkling on top
4 ounces sliced mozzarella cheese (if you can get it, the soft fresh kind is best, it melts sooooo creamy)
your favorite marinara sauce or store bought spaghetti sauce

Steps:

  • Pound the chicken breasts between two slices of plastic wrap until about 1/4" thick.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Dredge chicken in flour and shake off excess.
  • Dip in egg/milk mixture, then in breadcrumb/Parmesan mixture.
  • Heat the butter and olive oil in a large deep skillet.
  • Brown the chicken breasts over medium heat until golden on each side (about 2-3 min per side).
  • Remove to a plate and keep warm.
  • Add the marinara sauce to the skillet.
  • Heat to boiling and simmer 10 minutes.
  • Add the chicken breasts to the sauce and sprinkle Parmesan over them.
  • Place a slice of mozzarella on each piece of chicken.
  • Cover and simmer about 8- 10 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the chicken is tender.
  • Serve with your favorite pasta- we like linguine.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet that is oven-safe. This will allow you to cook the chicken and sauce in the same pan, making cleanup a breeze.
  • If you don't have a large skillet that is oven-safe, you can transfer the chicken and sauce to a baking dish before baking.
  • Be sure to cook the chicken all the way through before adding the sauce. Undercooked chicken can be dangerous to eat.
  • Use a good quality marinara sauce. A flavorful sauce will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese. A generous layer of cheese will make the casserole gooey and delicious.
  • Serve the casserole with a side of pasta or bread for a complete meal.

Conclusion:

Chicken parmesan skillet casserole is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With its tender chicken, flavorful sauce, and gooey cheese, this casserole is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
