Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it is ready for baking the chicken.

  2. 2

    Flatten Chicken

    Place chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and gently pound to an even thickness.

  3. 3

    Season Chicken

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper over both sides of the chicken breasts.

  4. 4

    Coat Chicken

    First, coat the chicken in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally press into the breadcrumbs until well coated.

  5. 5

    Fry Chicken

    Place the breaded chicken in the hot skillet and cook until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes on each side.

  6. 6

    Bake Chicken

    Once fried, place the chicken in a baking dish, cover with jack cheese and marinara sauce, and bake until the cheese is bubbly.

Pasta Preparation

  1. 7

    Cook Linguini

    Add linguini to the boiling water and cook according to package directions, usually around 8-10 minutes.

  2. 8

    Toss Pasta

    Drain the pasta, then return it to the pot and toss with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.

Salad Preparation

  1. 9

    Prepare Salad

    Combine the greens, halved tomatoes, and sliced cucumber in a bowl.

  2. 10

    Make Dressing

    Whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.

  3. 11

    Dress Salad

    Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Serving

  1. 12

    Plate the Dish

    Place the baked chicken parmesan atop the linguini and serve with a side salad and slices of fresh French bread.
