really quick and simple to create! Delicious, too! Chicken pairs incredibly well with the tomato sauce and garlic in the Barilla Napoletana® ready-made version.

Ingredients
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1 egg
- ½ cup seasoned bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 ¾ cups pasta sauce (such as Barilla Napoletana®)
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Press chicken breasts with the palm of your hand to flatten to an even thickness.
- Beat egg into a shallow bowl; place bread crumbs into a separate shallow bowl. Dip each chicken breast into beaten egg and press into bread crumbs to coat.
- Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat and fry coated chicken breasts until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side.
- Pour pasta sauce over chicken, cover, and bring sauce to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Sprinkle chicken with mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and parsley. Cover and simmer until cheeses melt, about 5 more minutes.

This dish was delicious. Definitely went over very well. I made a couple of substitutions just based on what I had. Used Arrabiata sauce if you like a bit of heat and shaken bake for the breading. We’ll definitely make again.
Simple, quick, easy. Exactly what a family like mine needs.
This was the best chicken parmesan I’ve ever had and it was quick and easy.
It’s a keeper! Will be part of our menu rotation.
Delightfully delicious and presentable enough for company ! I had a pack of thin sliced chicken breast so used it. The meal was easy and fast, will make it again.
Delicious! My husband said it was like Olive Garden.
Awesome

My husband loved it. It was fast and easy. Will make it again.
Added more sauce….yes we will have it again
Loved it, definitely adding to our rotation!!
Cooked much longer than specified. Liked flavor
Easy to make and quick too!! Will definitely make again
Used olive oil instead of butter. Super fast and easy. Really delicious
Made last night. Changes I made were to add chopped basil and after browning, added cheeses and baked in oven for about 12 minutes. Chicken was very tender and juicy. Will make again.(served over spaghetti noodles )
As a new cook, this recipe was easy to understand, simple to make and delicious ~ a new family favorite!!
I made this for my boyfriend, and he loved it! I also made it at his house, which means a general lack of kitchen supplies. If I had known it was that easy to flatten chicken literally by hand, I would have done it more. I used a plastic baggie between my hands and chicken and actually pounded it down. That was fun. lol It took 2 eggs, and I didn’t measure out the bread crumbs. I can see myself making this again.
Will definitely make this again. Quick, tasty and great leftovers–which are important in our house!
No it was really good
i loved this dish
I have been making this for years. The only thing I changed is I have been using chicken tenders so the cooking time is less. My son also makes this. It is so easy, quick and soooo good.
