Baked Chicken Parmesan and Caprese Salad


I love Chicken Parmesan but I don't like all the oil when you fry it. So I make a Baked Chicken Parmesan that requires no oil or frying. First I take the Chicken Breast and I pound them out between 2 pieces of saran wrap with a frying pan. Once they are pounded thin I soak them in some milk and then coat with parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. I put the Chicken on a baking sheet sprayed with some Pam. I bake them in the oven for about 20 to 25 mins (depending on how thick they are) at 350 degrees. I serve them with just a little Pasta sauce drizzled over the top. They are so good when they are baked because the meat stays really juicy. I serve a Caprese Salad on the side which is really easy and looks classy. I just slice tomatoes and top with Chopped Basil and some sliced Fresh Mozzarella. Make sure to use Fresh Mozzarella which is a lot different than regular Mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle some salt and pepper over the top and finish with a drizzle of olive oil and Balsamic Vinegar.
