Chicken Parmesan too easy and good to not share!!

I love yummy food. Period. I crave it. And chicken parmesan is one food I crave, but it's usually such a messy pain to make, and forget restaurants, you can eat like 3 bites if you want to stay within your calorie goal. But this version is super easy, uses only 2 pans, and takes about 15 minutes to make from start to finish. It's my own creation, but I'm sure there are similar ones out there.

The breakdown:


If cooking for 2, just double everything except the flour/parmegan cheese mixture because it is enough to dredge 2 chicken breasts.

To make it:
Start a pot of water boiling, weigh out 1 oz of spaghetti noodles (I use barilla whole wheat)
heat skillet to medium heat (I have a gas stove, adjust as necessary for electric)
Mix 1 tbs flour and 1 tbs grated parmesan cheese on a paper plate
rinse a trimmed boneless/skinless chicken breast under running water (the ones I buy are usually about 4.5 oz raw, but I always weigh it to make sure)
immediately dredge the chicken in the flour/parm mixture
spray a 1 second spray of olive oil pam into the skillet just about the size of your chicken breast, let it heat up a second or 2, put chicken on top of it.
Add noodles to boiling water
grate 1oz (I just do it onto my digital food scale) of part-skim milk mozzarella cheese
turn the chicken (about 4 minutes on each sides if it is thin or you have pounded it thin)

twittle your thumbs

move the chicken over to the side in the skillet and add 1/2 cup of Classico fire-roasted tomato and garlic sauce to the other side, stirring until warm

Drain noodles, put on the plate
put chicken on the plate
pour sauce over top of chicken and noodles
add cheese to top
pop it in the microwave for about 30 sec to melt the cheese

Eat. Don't burn your tongue.

Get hubby to wash the dishes.

Hope you enjoyed!
