So I have chicken thawed, got home from work late, and the wife is busy playing World of Warcraft. Didn't really want to do the same old chicken and Pasta Roni. So here is what I put together. Uh ya no pictures for this one it didn't last that long.
1 minute prep 10-15 minutes cook time
2 Boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 Jar of your favorite tomato sauce (I used Roasted Garlic Classico)
2 oz Mozzarella cheese
1 oz Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp Olive oil
1 tbsp Italian seasoning
1 tbsp Granulated garlic
2 tsp Salt and pepper
2 Servings pasta of your choice
So this is pretty easy. Preheat oven to 375. Put saute pan on medium heat and add oil. Pound out chicken breast to even out the thickness so it will cook evenly. Add italian seasoning, granulated garlic, salt and pepper to chicken. After oil is hot add breasts and let cook till slightly browned on each side. Now add jar of tomato sauce to pan and mix. Top chicken breasts with both mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. Cover pan and cook for 10 minutes or until cheese has melted and chicken breasts are done. While chicken is in oven cook pasta. When cooking pasta always be sure to add about a tablespoon of salt to flavor the water and a tablespoon of olive oil to keep it from foaming.
Put pasta down first then top with sauce and a little more parmesan cheese. Then top it all with chicken breast.
Awesome. These are things I usually have on hand. I'll be making this in the near future I think. :)
ReplyDeleteYup that was the nice thing about this one. It is stuff that people would normally have on hand. The other nice part I forgot to write in is it only took 15-20 minutes from start to finish. Think the longest part was waiting for the pasta water to boil.
ReplyDeleteAwesome idea! Also loving the background. Very classy!
