Skillet Chicken Parmesan


Ingredients:
125ml grated Parmesan cheese, divided
80ml dry breadcrumbs
5ml dried oregano
5ml dried basil
Sea salt
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
750g chicken breasts cut into strips
15g butter
15ml olive oil
250g angel hair or spaghetti pasta, cooked and drained
375-500ml tomato-basil marinara
15ml balsamic vinegar
a couple of grinds of black pepper
125ml grated Mozzarella cheese


Method:

Preheat the grill on the oven. You'll need a large non-stick skillet and a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet for this recipe.

Combine 45ml Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, oregano, basil and a pinch of salt in a shallow bowl. 


Place the egg white in a separate shallow bowl. 

Heat the butter with the olive oil in your non-stick skillet over medium heat. 

Dip each piece of chicken in egg white, then coat in the breadcrumb mixture. Add the chicken to the pan and cook 3 minutes on each side or until cooked through.

Place the cooked pasta in your oven-safe skillet. Place the cooked chicken on top of the pasta. 

In a medium bowl, mix marinara with balsamic vinegar, pepper and a pinch of salt. Spoon the sauce over the chicken. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining Parmesan and Mozzarella cheeses. 

Grill for 2 to 4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. 

Serve a generous portion of pasta with chicken and sauce on top immediately!
