A delightful twist on the classic chicken parmesan, this recipe combines crispy chicken with a cheesy topping and a flavorful tomato sauce, served over pasta for a comforting meal.
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Preheating ensures even cooking and a crispy texture.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
Whisk thoroughly to create a smooth mixture for even coating.
Place the bread crumbs in another shallow bowl.
Add a pinch of salt and pepper to the bread crumbs for extra flavor.
Dip each chicken breast into the egg mixture, then coat with bread crumbs.
Press the bread crumbs onto the chicken to ensure they stick well.
Arrange the coated chicken breasts in a baking dish.
Leave some space between the pieces for even cooking.
Top each chicken breast with a portion of mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
Layer the cheeses evenly for a deliciously melted topping.
Spoon the tomato sauce over the cheese-topped chicken.
Use a spoon to spread the sauce evenly over the chicken.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly.
Check the chicken's internal temperature to ensure it's fully cooked.
Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions during the last 15 minutes of baking.
Add a pinch of salt to the boiling water for better-tasting pasta.
Serve the chicken over the cooked spaghetti and enjoy.
Garnish with fresh basil or parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
