Chicken Parmesan



1 jar; favorite spaghetti sauce
1 large egg
3/4 cup plain dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
12 chicken tenders
3 tbl. olive oil
8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese shredded

Preheat broiler. Spread spaghetti sauce evenly in 13x9 inch pan. Pour egg into a shallow dish. Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan , salt and pepper in another shallow dish. Heat oil in large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Dip chicken tenders into egg, turning to coat. Dip tenders into crumb mixture, turning to coat. I use one hand for the egg mixture and the other for the crumb mixture. Place in skillet. Cook the breaded chicken on each side till golden brown, turning once. Arrange chicken in a single layer on the spaghetti sauce. Top with mozzarella chesse. Broil 6 inches from heat till hot and cheese is melted and beginning to brown.

Note: This dish is good alone or with spaghetti noodles with more spaghetti sauce.
