How to cook Chicken Parmesan with Tomato Sauce Recipe
Parmesan chicken is traditionally made with boneless, skinless chicken
breasts. We use breasts, but thighs too, if we are starting with a
whole chicken.
Chicken tomato sauce recipe Ingredients
Sauce ingredients:
2 medium garlic cloves, peeled and minced
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes (we use Muir-Glen)
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon sugar
Salt and ground black pepper
Chicken ingredients:
3 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1 Tbsp white-wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 (5-oz) skinless boneless chicken breast halves (or deboned thighs)
3/4 cup of breadcrumbs (we use make our breadcrumbs from old French
bread)
1 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 Prepare the sauce. In a large saucepan, heat the garlic and oil
together over medium high heat until the garlic starts to sizzle.
Stir in the tomatoes, basil, oregano, sugar, a pinch of salt and pepper.
Bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer until sauce thickens a bit and
flavors meld, about 10-12 minutes. Taste sauce, adjust seasoning if
necessary, cover and keep warm.
2 Preheat oven to 450°F. Cut each chicken breast half in half for
smaller pieces. With a meat pounder, pound the chicken pieces to flatten
them to an even thickness - between 1/4 - 1/2 inch. You might find
it easier to put the chicken between layers of plastic wrap before
pounding.
3 Whisk together mustard, vinegar, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper
in a large bowl, add the chicken pieces, tossing to coat well.
4 In another bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, grated cheese, and
1/4 teaspoon of pepper. Mix well and add in the melted butter. Transfer
to a shallow plate. Dredge the chicken pieces 1 piece at a time in
the crumb mixture, coating completely. Press the crumbs in gently
to adhere and transfer to a stick-free baking sheet. Bake in the middle
of the oven until golden brown and cooked through, about 15 minutes.
Serve with a side of rice or pasta. Ladle sauce over the chicken.
Serves 4.
