Chicken Parmesean

Ingredients:

Chicken breast cutlets (no set quantity...how much do you want?)

1-2 Tbs. olive oil

1 package low-fat mozzarella (unless you're making a lot, then you'll need more)

Salt and pepper to taste

Marinara sauce

Marinara sauce:

3 large cans crushed tomatoes

4 cloves garlic (minced)

2 medium onions (diced)

1 Tbs. dried oregano

1 Tbs. dried basil

1 tsp. dried thyme

Spray a large pot with non-stick cooking spray and sautee onions and garlic until onions are translucent.  Add the crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil and thyme and let simmer for at least an hour.

While sauce is simmering, season chicken cutlets with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil.  Grill chicken until nicely browned.

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Spread some marinara sauce on the bottom of a roasting pan (I use a Pyrex roasting pan, but whatever you have is fine) and place grilled chicken over it in a single layer.  Ladle marinara sauce over the chicken and top with mozzarella.  Cover with aluminum foil and let bake 20 minutes.  Take aluminum foil off and continue to bake an additional 10 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and turning brown.

Serve with whole grain pasta.

Sandwiches can be made with the leftovers (whole grain roll, of course).
