Method

Chicken Parmigiana

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Dredge the Chicken

    Set up a dredging station with three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. Dip each chicken breast first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally coat in breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Cook 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. Transfer to a baking dish.

  4. 4

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Top each chicken breast with marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Penne Pasta

  1. 6

    Boil the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add salt and penne pasta. Cook according to package instructions until al dente.

  2. 7

    Drain and Toss

    Drain the pasta and return it to the pot. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.

Milanese Capricciosa Salad

  1. 8

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine arugula, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced fresh mozzarella.

  2. 9

    Dress the Salad

    In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle over the salad and toss gently to combine.
