INGREDIENTS

  • Cooking Time: 40
  • Servings: 3-4
  • 3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cleaned.
  • Sea salt
  • Flour
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • Ragu (meat sauce)
  • 1 tsp for each breast Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • Shredded mozzarella

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.


Clean, rinse and pat-dry the chicken breasts.


Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on each breast.


Coat each one in flour, then eggs and finally in bread crumbs, press crumbs in.


Place the chicken in a baking dish.


Spoon sauce over each breast to cover.


Spoon on the parmigiano-reggiano.


Sprinkle with mozzarella to cover.


Bake for at least 40 minutes.


Going longer will leave a firmer, crispier cheese crust.


RECIPE BACKSTORY

I like the taste of sauce made with wine, so I always use my own ragu - usually leftover sauce from the day before - to make this dish.

I use parmigiano-reggiano and sea salt instead of plain old parmesan and salt because their flavors are so strong. This dish goes great with a garlic pasta. Good stuff.

When I cook anything with ragu, I always have Elmo Pio Chianti on the table with a loaf of crusty bread.

Good stuff.

I totally agree with you on the wine. I use wine ALOT in my cooking, often in place of stock in sauces...much better flavor. I will have to give this a try...sounds YUMMY!
