Chicken Parmesan

This is another great recipe from Marie. She made this dish for us years ago in Lexington when they invited us to dinner. I've made it a lot since then. The only thing better than eating all of Marie's good food is their great friendship. We love being with Micah and Marie! Our gut hurts for days after being with them because of all the laughing.


Chicken Parmesan

4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup flour
2 eggs
3/4 cups bread crumbs(I like to use "stove top")
1/2 cup parmesan cheese(divided)

Gravy:
2 tbsp margarine
2 tbsp flour
1 1/4 cup milk
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp dry basil
1/2 tsp dry oregano
1/4 tsp pepper

Toppings:
1- 8 oz can tomato sauce
1-8 oz mushrooms(optional...I don't like mushrooms very much)
1 cup shredded mozzerella cheese

Dredge chicken in flour, then eggs, then crumbs mixed with 1/4 cup parmesan cheese. Bake 400 for 20 minutes-uncovered. Melt butter with flour until smooth. Add milk and boil until thickens. Add seasonings. Pour gravy, tomato sauce, mushrooms, mozzerella cheese, and parmesan cheese over baked chicken. Bake for 15 mintues at 400.
