Introduction
An upgraded classic Chicken Parmesan recipe featuring crispy pan-fried cutlets baked over a rich tomato-ricotta sauce and topped with melted fresh mozzarella.
Step 1
Add olive oil, chopped onions, and garlic to a cold pot, then turn on the heat to gently soften them.
Step 2
Pour in the hand-crushed tomatoes, fresh basil, a splash of water, and a pinch of salt. Stir and simmer partially covered for 30 minutes.
Step 3
Prepare the breading station: whisk the eggs with a handful of grated parmesan and salt in one dish, and mix the breadcrumbs with parmesan and salt in another.
Step 4
Dip each chicken cutlet into the egg wash, then coat thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Step 5
Fry the breaded cutlets in hot light olive oil for about 2-3 minutes on each side until crispy and golden brown, then drain on paper towels.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Starting onions and garlic in cold oil helps release their flavors gently without browning or burning.
Avoid using paper-thin pre-sliced chicken cutlets as they will easily dry out and become rubbery when baked.
Choose a firmer, dry-style fresh mozzarella instead of the very wet variety packaged in water to avoid making the dish watery.
Adding ricotta and parmesan directly into the marinara sauce gives it an incredibly rich and creamy texture.
