Crispy Chicken Parmesan Pasta
This Crispy Chicken Parmesan Pasta is the perfect comfort food! Combining tender pasta, rich marinara, and crispy breaded chicken, it’s a dish that satisfies every craving. Let’s whip this up!
Ingredients
For the Chicken:
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Vegetable oil for frying
For the Pasta:
300g penne or your favorite pasta
2 cups marinara sauce
1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Prepare the Chicken:
Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create thinner pieces.
Coat each piece in flour, then dip in beaten eggs, and finally coat with a mixture of breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet and fry the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. Place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Cook the Pasta:
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Combine the Pasta with Sauce:
In a large skillet, heat olive oil and add marinara sauce. Toss the cooked pasta in the sauce, coating it evenly.
Assemble the Dish:
Slice the crispy chicken into strips and place on top of the pasta. Sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
Serve & Enjoy:
Serve hot with a sprinkle of extra Parmesan and a garnish of parsley for added freshness.
Pro Tip
To make it extra cheesy, bake the pasta and chicken in a casserole dish topped with mozzarella until golden and bubbly.
This Crispy Chicken Parmesan Pasta will have everyone coming back for seconds!
