Ingredients

    Ingredients:

    For the bread crumbs:
    2 slices of whole wheat bread (made into crumbs)
    1 tbs olive oil
    1 tbsp basil
    1/2 cup grated smoked mozzarella
    1/2 cup grated fontina cheese
    1/2 cup fresh grated parmesan

    For the sauce:
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    28 oz canned crushed tomatoes
    1 tbsp basil

    For the chicken:
    3 olive oil
    4 chicken breast halves (about 1.5 lbs), each sliced in half to make thin cutlets
    1/2 cup flour
    Salt and pepper

Directions

Toast the bread crumbs in a skillet over medium high heat, stirring constantly. About five minutes. When golden brown set aside until cooled then toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, cheeses and basil. Save for the topping.

Combine sauce ingredients in bowl and set aside.

Heat 2 tbsp olive oil oil over medium high heat in large skillet. Salt and pepper chicken and dredge in flour. Brown four pieces at a time (so as not to crowd skillet) about 2-3 minutes each side. Remove to plate.

Reduce heat to medium and add tomato sauce, scraping bottom of the skillet. Add minced garlic and 1 tbsp basil cook for 5 minutes. Add chicken back in, including any juices that may have accumulated, nestling in to sauce. Top each piece with handful of bread/cheese mixture. Put in oven on broil and keep an eye on it, you want the cheese to melt and bubble. Serve with whole wheat pasta (not included in calorie count)
