Method

For the Chicken Parmesan

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Dredge the Chicken

    Coat each chicken breast in flour, shaking off any excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, and then coat with bread crumbs mixed with half of the Parmesan cheese.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the coated chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to a baking dish.

  4. 4

    Add Cheese

    Top each chicken breast with mozzarella cheese and the remaining Parmesan cheese.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted.

For the Jalapeño Lime Sauce

  1. 6

    Prepare the Jalapeños

    Remove the stems and seeds from the jalapeños, then finely chop them.

  2. 7

    Blend the Sauce

    In a blender, combine the chopped jalapeños, fresh lime juice, sour cream, cilantro, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.

  3. 8

    Heat the Sauce

    Transfer the sauce to a small saucepan and heat on low for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Final Assembly

  1. 9

    Serve

    Once the chicken is done baking, remove it from the oven. Drizzle the jalapeño lime sauce over the chicken and garnish with additional cilantro if desired. Serve immediately.
