How to Make Crispy Breaded Chicken:

  1. Slice the 2 large chicken breasts in half lengthwise. Place in a ziplock bag, press down to remove any air, then seal. Use a kitchen mallet to pound out the chicken pieces to be 1/4″ thick or thinner.
  2. Heat up your cooking oil in a skillet over medium high heat to 350F.
  3. Set up your station with 3 large plates or bowls. Add the beaten eggs to one bowl. Combine the flour and spices in the second bowl. Add the panic breadcrumbs to the third bowl.
  4. Dredge each chicken piece through the flour mixture, then the beaten eggs, then the breadcrumbs until well coated.
  5. Fry the chicken pieces in batches of 1-2 pieces for 3-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Place the chicken on a paper towel lined wire rack.
  7. To keep warm, place in the oven at 250F.

How to Make Oven-Baked Chicken Parmesan:

  1. Slice the baguettes in half lengthwise. Drizzle generously with the olive oil. Broil in the oven for 2-4 minutes, until golden.
  2. Preheat oven to 400F.
  3. On a parchment lined baking pan, add the crispy chicken pieces (recipe above).
  4. Spread a layer of the vodka pasta sauce on top of each, following by 2 thinly sliced mozzarella.
  5. Bake for 5-8 minutes, until the mozzarella is melted.

Can Chicken Parmesan be Made in Advance?

Yes, you can make chicken parmesan up to 3 days in advance. I recommend making the crispy chicken and once fully cooled, store in an airtight container in the fridge. Place the crispy chicken on a baking pan at 400F to bake 8-10 minutes, until crispy again, then layer with vodka sauce and mozzarella to bake 5-6 more minutes, until cheese is melted.

‍

How to Reheat Chicken Parmesan?

Reheat in the oven at 400F for 8-12 minutes, until warmed through and chicken is crispy again.
