Chicken Parm

[chopsaw]

Never had chicken parm before . sawhorseray Ray showed me how he does it , and inspired me to make some tonight . Used the mid 60's Revere ware skillet I got at the Goodwill . That thing is the best pan I've ever used for doing this .
Right to the point ,
Pounded out a couple chicken breast . Floured them up , and let them sit 30 minutes or so .
Egg and water wash , then into Panko bread crumbs .
Regular Crisco in the pan .

Brown and flip . Presentation side is all you really need . Don't over cook them by waiting for the second side to color up .

Pulled out of the pan at an IT of 135 .
2 TBL. of red sauce . Shredded parm , then shredded motz .
On a foil lined sheet pan and into an oven preheated to 400 .
When the IT was 162 , I went under the broiler to brown the cheese .
Pretty darn good . Chicken was super tender and not dry at all .
Be doing this again soon . Side of Bucatini ( spaghetti with a whole through the middle )
Nice chew on the pasta .

Nice, looks delicious!

An entree that used be offered on every other menu in America.
Now it seems to be uncommon if not rare outside an Italian eatery.

Man that looks good right now. I picked up some chicken earlier tonight. I might just have to make that. We have three more days of rain so the outdoor cooking is out.

Thanks Mike . Standard technique , just never did the sauce and cheese on it before . I normally fry it up with garlic parm on the pasta .

Awesome Rich!

Changed my race plans at the last minute . A lot warmer inside .
Thanks for the comment .

I might just have to make that. We have three more days of rain so the outdoor cooking is out.

Main reason I did it . Gonna start warming up this week .
Post it up when you do .

Looks good. I might be putting that on the menu for tonight!

Pound it out thin . I normally rip the breast over the length if they're thick . These were thin enough , and pounded out nice .
