A recipe a week

So I am setting a goal to myself to cook at least 1 new recipe a week.  I have gotten into too much of a rut with making the same dishes over and over.  I must say I truly miss Typh and his new creations when he would cook for me.  

This week I cooked Chicken Parmesan for some friends whom came over for supper.  I would say that it was a hit.

I used fresh boneless skinless breast of chicken.  
I made the breading with grated parmesan cheese, Italian seasoned bread crumbs, cayenne pepper, salt, onion and garlic powder.
I trimmed the breasts then dipped them in melted butter, once covered in butter I rolled them in the breading.  I then dipped them into the butter again and added a second coating of breading.  
I baked the breasts for 30 minutes.  Then I flipped them over and added some marinara sauce to each. I let them cook for 10 more minutes before adding some cheese to the top of each.  
I served the chicken with a small side of whole wheat spaghetti and steamed broccoli.

Below is the finished product minus the broccoli as it had all been eaten by the time I took the picture.


Breading for 4-5 breasts
1 cup grated parmesam
2 cups Italian bread crumbs
1 tsp salt
1 tbl garlic powder
1 tbl onion powder
2 tsp cayenne pepper

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes flip & add marinara then cook an additional 10-15 minutes depending on the size of the breasts.

Sliante,
Kat
