Products to Use:
- NanoBond 14" Chef's Pan
- NanoBond 5qt Dutch Oven
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400º. Make the chicken by preparing breading station with three large mixing bowls: one bowl with panko, garlic powder, and Parmesan mixed with a fork; another with the egg mixture; and the third bowl with flour.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper, then coat each piece of chicken in flour and shake off excess. Dip chicken into egg mixture and then into bread crumb mixture; repeat steps for remaining chicken and set aside on a plate.
- In the NanoBond 5qt. Dutch Oven over medium-high heat, add 1/4" oil. When pan is hot but not smoking, add chicken. Cook until golden brown, 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Meanwhile, start the marinara sauce in the NanoBond 14” Chef’s Pan over medium heat, by heating the oil. Add onion and garlic and cook until soft, 4-minutes. Add in tomatoes and water, season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, and let simmer, 10-minutes. Remove from heat and stir in parsley.
- Wipe out cooled Dutch Oven and pour sauce into pan, placing chicken in sauce. Top with mozzarella and bake until cheese starting to melt, 10-12 minutes. If desired, broil until cheese is golden, 3-minutes
- Garnish with parsley and serve immediately with side of pasta and salad.
