Ingredients

    4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
    1 Slice of Sara Lee Whole Grain White Bread
    1/4 cup crushed Saltine Crackers
    1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
    1 yolk of a Large Egg
    2 Tablespoons of Skim/Fat Free Milk
    1 Teaspoon of Salt
    1 Teaspoon of Black Pepper
    1/2 Teaspoon Garlic Powder
    2 Teaspoons Dried Parsley Flakes
    4 cups of cooked spaghetti
    4 cups of Hunts Garlic and Cheese Spaghetti Sauce
    4 slices of Provolone Cheese
    3 Tablespoons of Olive Oil

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Prep Bread Coating:

In your food processor combine 1 slice of bread with crackers, Parmesan, salt, pepper, garlic powder and parsley flakes. Pulse until incorporated and all crumbs. Place in a bowl and set a side.

Add egg yolk and milk to a bowl and whisk together until incorporated. Set a side.

Prep Chicken Breasts:

Cut the chicken breasts in half, length wise, so you now have 8 thin chicken breast cutlets.

Dip cutlets one at a time into your egg mixture, making sure it is coated. Then place cutlet into your bread crumb mixture. Again make sure it has a nice coating. Set a side.

Repeat with remaining cutlets.

Pasta and Sauce:

Cook your pasta according to directions on the package.

Put sauce in a medium sauce pan and let simmer on low.

Cooking the Chicken:

Heat 3 Tablespoons of Olive oil on medium low heat in a large skillet. Once heated add chicken cutlets 2 at a time to the pan. Cook until coating is golden brown on both side, transfer to a cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining cutlets.

Once they are all golden brown, place cookie sheet in your preheated oven and allow to finish cooking. About 7-10 minutes.

Cut Provolone cheese slices in half and place one on each cutlet 1 minute before removing them from the oven.

Serving:
1/2 cup of pasta on the plate
1/2 cup of sauce on top of the pasta
1 chicken Parmesan cutlet on top of sauce.
