Chicken Parmigana

I got this recipe from a friend of a friend a LONG time ago...it still never disappoints. It is a much healthier version that what you are served at the local Italian restaurant, but still just as good.



Ingredients:
4 chicken breast
1 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup olive oil
2 eggs
16oz jar of spaghetti sauce
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese-I substituted sliced provolone
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. In a skillet heat the olive oil. While skillet is heating, beat eggs in a bowl. Dip chicken breast in egg mixture, cover in bread crumbs and place in the hot skillet. Cook breast until both sides are brown. Spread a thin layer of spaghetti sauce at the bottom of a 13x9 pan. Place chicken breast on top of spaghetti sauce, then top with cheese. Bake in oven for about 15 minutes or until cheese has melted/browned.

I served it with whole wheat spaghetti noodles.
