Coat a saute pan with olive oil and place over medium heat. Pound the chicken thin: Place the chicken cutlets one at a time between two layers of plastic wrap or wax paper. Dip chicken in egg; then in bread crumbs. You can have Chicken Parmesan using 8 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you cook that.

Ingredients of Chicken Parmesan

1. Prepare 2 of chicken breasts.
2. Prepare 1 cup of Italian bread crumbs.
3. Prepare 2 tbsp of garlic powder, lemon pepper, and chipotle (or any spices of your choosing).
4. Prepare 1 of egg.
5. You need 4-5 cups of Marinara sauce (homemade or jar).
6. It's 1 can of crescent rolls.
7. It's 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese or any white cheese of your choosing (horseradish cheese is my favorite).
8. Prepare 2 cups of vegetable oil.

Place slices of mozzarella on top of chicken. Stir the oil and herbs in a small bowl to blend. Brush both sides of the cutlets with the herb oil. In a shallow bowl, combine butter, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and salt.

Chicken Parmesan instructions

1. Cut the 2 chicken breasts into thin strips than heat up vegetable oil in a large pan on medium high heat.
2. Now combine bread crumbs and spices on a plate next whisk an egg and about 1/2 tbsp of water into a shallow bowl. First cover a strip in the bread crumbs then dip in egg and back into bread crumbs (make sure they are well covered you may need more egg or bread crumb blend).
3. When the oil is heated only put 3 - 4 in at a time and cover with paper towel and cook all the way through but be carful to not burn the crust and when finshed put to the side.
4. Preheat the oven to 375° and begin heating marinara and lay out crescent rolls and cheese.
5. When the marinara is ready dunk the strip in it and put cheese on the wide part of the dough and then place the chicken strip on top and roll up and place on a pan (this gets pretty messy).
6. After you completed step 5 and your oven is ready place in for about 15 - 20 minutes until the dough is golden brown.
7. When they are done I would suggest melting butter and sweeping some on the top with a dash of garlic salt and enjoy.

Place bread crumbs and cheese in another shallow bowl. The main components of this dish, the sauce and the chicken, can be prepared in advance. When you're ready to eat, simply assemble and bake.
