Finally Got My Chicken Parm Restaurant Good!

Published on June 8, 2007 By Jythier In Cooking

So I found a recipe at cooks.com for chicken parmesan. I think I could've figured most of it out without the recipe, except the baking times. I suck at baking times. But besides that, I'm a pretty good cook. I normally just avoid baking, but how can you with chicken parmesan?

I used store-bought marinara sauce, and wal-mart frozen chicken breast product. I ignored the quantities for everything, so that it would feel more home-done. I only had plain breadcrumbs, so I sprinkled in some oregano and basil, black pepper, and added some parmesan cheese too. I cooked it a little longer than the recipe called for because I did not want to eat underdone chicken. I served it over spaghetti, and it was delicious. Couldn't have gotten (much) better at a restaurant. So, I am now chicken parmesan happy, which is pretty high up there on the happiness scale.Link

Sounds like a winner to me.

Baking times depend too heavily on the oven. Most of is don't have the benefit of having the kind of equipment restaurant chefs have. I have that problem a lot when I try to cook stuff I see on FoodTV.

Considering I've been trying to make the thing for a couple years now, I think my quest is complete. Now to move onto teriyaki stir-fry.

I love parmesian! Especially Eggplant.

I don't exactly know what to do with eggplant to cook it. Pretty good at eating it though.
