Quick chicken parmesan and mozzarella is a simple and easy recipe. The great thing is, it can be made up in 30 minutes which makes it a perfect midweek meal. If you’re anything like me , I like to come home and have dinner on the table in half an hour. This is especially apparent during the week. My family and friends sometimes comment that there is no way you made this in 30 minutes. My response, tongue in cheek, is: “How did you know.”

Ingredients
Instructions
-

Add the bread crumbs and Parmesan to a third bowl. Dredge the chicken until coated.

Place each piece of chicken onto a baking dish lined with a mat or Parchment paper.

Pour some olive oil into a pan. Put the chicken in and fry until golden brown and cooked through. This should take about 2 minutes on each side.

Note
I use store bought marinara, but you can use spaghetti sauce, tomato sauce, or make your own from scratch.
Extra seasoning can be added to the bread crumbs, as well. I use Italian as they are already seasoned, but you can use any kind you wish.
