Chef Flower's Cheat Chicken Parmigiana


This dish is quick and easy, it looks like a lot of work to the person who is eating it but it's not. i made it for a very picker eater and she enjoyed it as well. Hubby (dh) also really enjoys this one. The chicken schnitzels breast should be pre coated with spices and bread crumbs but still raw. I normally buy the chicken schnitzels pre-made from our butcher. the pasta sauce i use is called barilla olive (my favourite), which has chunky bits of olives in it so it adds to the texture. i don't use the complete 400 grams of the pasta sauce. Cheese - you can use your favourite cheese, i sometimes use a little bit of mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese & cheddar cheese (also known as tasty cheese in australia) but most times i normally use whatever cheese i have at home. as long as it can melt - enjoy

Steps


Spray olive oil on a heated non-stick pan.
Place chicken on pan and panfry the pre-made chicken schnitzels until both sides are golden brown.
Once it is cooked place the cooked chicken schnitzel into an greased ovenproof dish and repeat steps until all the schnitzels are cooked.
Spread your favourite pasta sauce individually on to the chicken.
Then sprinkle your chosen cheese on the chicken to cover the top of the chicken.
Garnish it lightly it with a sprinkle of dried or fresh parsley.
Bake at 160 degrees celsius uncovered until cheese is melted and lightly browned.
Serve with a green salad or seasonal vegetables and garlic bread.
