SUMMER CHICKEN STIR FRY
This twist on Ree's versatile summer stir fry from her book "Food From My Frontier," is made with shrimp instead of chicken. The key to a successful stir-fry is to have all of your ingredients prepped before you start cooking. The high heat under the pan makes things go quickly - if you stop to prep inbetween, your food will overcook.

Steps:
- Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large skillet over a medium-high heat. Add the chicken and garlic, then sauté until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate.
- Increase the heat to high, then throw in the zucchini. Stir it around for about 45 seconds, then scoot the zucchini to the edges of the pan. Throw in the corn and cook it for a minute, then push it to the edges of the pan. Throw in the grape tomatoes, stir them around for a minute, then sprinkle on some salt and pepper to taste.
- Next, throw the chicken back in. Stir everything around for about 45 seconds, or until it's all combined and hot. Pour it onto a big platter.
- Sprinkle on the fresh basil and some Parmesan shavings then ... this is the best part ... squeeze the lemon all over the top. This adds a wonderful, indescribable freshness.
Tips:
- Use a meat mallet to pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. This will help them cook evenly.
- Dredge the chicken in flour, then eggs, and then breadcrumbs. This will create a crispy coating.
- Pan-fry the chicken breasts in olive oil until golden brown on both sides. This will help seal in the juices.
- Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and top with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese.
- Bake the chicken in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve the chicken parmigiana with spaghetti or another type of pasta.
Conclusion:
Pioneer Woman's Chicken Parmigiana is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With its crispy chicken, tangy marinara sauce, and melted mozzarella cheese, this dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
