Chicken Parmigiana

Chicken Parmigiana has always been the ultimate comfort food to me. I start by making a pig pot of fresh tomato sauce and homemade italian bread .  Then clean, slice and rub the chicken with a garlic paste. And using the best fresh mozzarella di bufala will make it all perfect.

Ingredients for 6 people:

6 large c hicken cutlets , prepared the same way as the chicken milanese recipe.

1 + 3 cups of tomato sauce , homemade or store bought

6-10 thick slices of mozzarella di bufala torn in pieces

1/2 cup of fresh shredded parmeggiano cheese

1 box of Spaghetti - cooked to box instructions

Lots of fresh italian bread .

Fresh chopped basil

Preheat the broiler to the highest setting.

In a large pyrex, lay the pieces of chicken side by side, sprinkle the parmeggiano all over the chicken and top it with the 1 cup of tomato sauce. Place the pieces of fresh mozzarella on top and place it under the broiler for about 3-5 minutes. Keep an eye as it will burn quick.

Remove from oven and sprinkle chopped basil on top. Serve it with spaghetti mixed with the 3 cups of sauce, garlic bread and iceberg wedge salad.
