Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Pasta

In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2

Prepare the Chicken

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a shallow dish, beat the egg. In another dish, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.

3

Bread the Chicken

Dip each chicken breast in the beaten egg, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere.

4

Sauté the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

5

Add Mushrooms and Marinara

Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until tender. Pour marinara sauce over the chicken and mushrooms. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.

6

Bake

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

7

Serve

Serve the chicken parmigiana over the cooked pasta, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese and herbs if desired.
