  • Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4-6 1x

Ingredients

Scale

3 Large Chicken Breast

1 Cup Plain Flour

2 Eggs

2 Cups Bread Crumbs

2 Tablespoons lemon and pepper seasoning

Oil of choice for shallow frying – olive oil, canola oil or sunflower oil are great options.

Jar of pasta sauce

200grams Shaved Ham

Cheese of choice – I use a mozzarella ball cut into slices

1kg Washed Potato

Drizzle of olive oil

Salt

Pepper

1 Teaspoon paprika

1 Tablespoon Italian herbs

Side salad of choice – We love a simple salad of lettuce, cucumber, Avocado, cherry tomatoes and dressing.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 180Degrees Celsius

Cut the potatoes into wedges and place on lined baking tray.

Drizzle over oil, salt, pepper, paprika and Italian herbs and toss to combine. Evenly spread over the tray.

Cook for 1 hour turning half way.

Slice chicken breast in half lengthways and set aside

Lightly beat 2 eggs in a large bowl

Place flour and lemon and pepper seasoning in another large bowl and mix well

Place bread crumbs in a third bowl

Dip each piece of chicken in the flour to coat all over, then the egg and finally the breadcrumbs.

Set aside on a plate

Heat oil in a heavy bottom skillet or pan on a medium heat. You can test if the heat is right by holding a wooden skewer in the oil and if it forms little bubbles around the skewer, it is ready

Carefully place chicken into the hot oil and cook for 3-4 mins on each side until golden and cooked through

Place chicken on a lined baking tray and top with pasta sauce, ham and cheese and place in oven until cheese is melted.

Serve parmigiana with wedges and side salad and enjoy!
