Steps:
- Cut off a 1 1/2-inch piece of the baguette and pulse in a food processor to make breadcrumbs. Add the tomatoes and 1/4 teaspoon salt and pulse until the tomatoes are finely chopped but not pureed. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat; add the garlic and cook until just golden, about 1 minute. Add the red pepper flakes and tomato mixture and bring to a simmer; cook until the sauce thickens slightly, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat a grill to medium high. Toss the chicken with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, the oregano and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Split the remaining baguette in half lengthwise and then cut in half to make 4 pieces.
- Grill the bread, cut-side down, until lightly toasted. Grill the chicken until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side, topping with the mozzarella and covering during the last 2 minutes.
- Spoon some tomato sauce onto the bread pieces and top with half of the parmesan. Top each with a chicken breast, then the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with basil and the remaining parmesan.

LAZY CHICKEN PARMESAN GRILLED CHEESE
Wanted to eat a chicken Parmesan sub but didn't feel like spending the time cooking and breading chicken. So I opted to cut corners using frozen chicken patties and pre-prepared ingredients to make my life easier. Picked up the sub rolls and couldn't justify eating that many calories, so opted instead for sliced Italian bread and thin-sliced cheese. Turned out so surprisingly good, I thought I'd share. Enjoy!

GRILLED CHICKEN PARMESAN
Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high. Make sure the grates are clean so the chicken doesn't stick.
- Arrange a chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap. On a work surface, using a meat mallet or small heavy pan, pound the chicken evenly until it is 1/4-inch (6 millimeters) thick. Remove the plastic wrap and transfer to a baking sheet; repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. Brush both sides of each chicken cutlet lightly with oil.
- Combine the salt, pepper and garlic powder in a small bowl and sprinkle evenly over both sides of the chicken cutlets. Place the chicken cutlets on the grill and cover the grill. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and spread a few tablespoons marinara sauce over each cutlet and top with a couple pieces of mozzarella and 1 tablespoon Parmesan. Cover the grill and cook until the cheese is melted and the chicken is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Serve hot.

Steps:
- For the Sauce: Heat the olive oil. Add the garlic and chopped onion; saute until soft. Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato paste (freeze leftover paste for another use) and remaining seasonings. Cover and simmer for about 20-30 minutes.
- For the Breaded Chicken: In a shallow bowl, combine flour and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning. In the second bowl, whisk the egg and olive oil. In the third, combine bread crumbs, the remaining teaspoon of Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese. Dredge each piece in the flour, then the egg wash and lastly, the breading. Place cutlets on a foil-lined and greased baking sheet. Preheated oven at 375 degrees and bake for about 15-20 minutes, turning once. Do not overbake. Alternatively, breaded cutlets may be fried in a pat of butter and a drizzle of olive oil heated in a frying pan about 5 minutes on each side.
- Butter each outerside of a deli roll and stack within the cooked chicken, tomato sauce, cheese and fresh basil. Grill on medium-low heat until bread is toasty and cheese is melted.

- Serve the sandwich with your favorite sides, such as fries, salad, or coleslaw.
