Hey everyone, it's Natasha of Natashaskitchen.com. Today we're making stuffed
chicken parmesan. It's crisp on the outside and so juicy on the inside. This
is an easy one pan, 30-minute meal. We'll start with four medium chicken breasts.
Season those all over with 3/4 teaspoon of salt and half a teaspoon of black
pepper. Using a sharp knife, cut a deep slit into each chicken breast without
cutting all the way through. Stuff each chicken breast with about two to three
tablespoons of shredded mozzarella and close the edges to seal.
Now we'll set up our breading stations. You'll need three large bowls. In the
first one add half a cup of flour, in the second beat two large eggs thoroughly
with a fork and in the third bowl stir together half a cup of bread crumbs with
1/3 cup of finely grated Parmesan cheese.
Working with one stuffed chicken breasts at a time, carefully dredge the first one
in flour, tapping off any excess.
Now dip into the eggs, letting any excess egg drip back into the bowl. Finally
transfer it to the breadcrumbs and turn it a couple of times to give it a good
coating and if any of you have any tips or tricks on how to keep your hands
clean in this process, let me know in a comment below. Place a large deep pan or
Dutch oven over medium heat and add 3 tablespoons of olive oil to lightly coat
the bottom. Once the oil is hot, add the breaded chicken in a single layer and
saute four minutes per side or until golden brown on each side. Now pour 2
cups of your favorite marinara sauce around and between the chicken breasts,
spoon some of the sauce onto the center of each chicken breast, then sprinkle the
remaining mozzarella over the top. Now bake uncovered at 400˚F
for 15 to 20 minutes or until the chicken has just cooked through. I'm
excited! It smells so good! Oh... and you know what? Before I serve, add a little
bit of fresh basil. It just adds this beautiful pop of color and flavor to the
dish.
So pretty. Alright, here we go.
YUM! Look at that cheese pull; cheese on the outside, cheese on the inside. Never
have too much cheese. There's no such thing. Okay and let's cut into this thing
because there is a treasure of melted cheese inside of this thing and it is
such a treat.
That cheese... so much cheese. These are loaded and that
mozzarella keeps the center of the chicken really juicy and flavorful. All
right, let's get you; get a bite of this. This is so good served over pasta, just
plain noodles because it's got that marinara sauce on it.
Here we go.
It is so juicy, I mean it's crisp on the outside with that Parmesan bread crumb
crust and so tender inside. This is delicious
