Cut chicken breast in half lengthwise to make thin cutlets. Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and basil. Coat chicken with bread crumb mixture. Heat ¼ inch olive oil on stove until hot and rippling. Brown chicken on both sides.
Remove from skillet and lay in flat baking dish, pour jar of spaghetti sauce over chicken (I like to use my homemade “Summer in a Jar” sauce). Sprinkle 2 cups mozzarella cheese over chicken. Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake 5-10 minutes until cheese is browned.
Serve over hot, cooked spaghetti noodles.
When you’re a dietitian, people give you cookbooks….and recipes…and all kinds of cooking advice. We received 50 cookbooks as wedding gifts and I love them all. I also received recipes at my bridal showers and they are some of our FAVORITE dishes! This is one of those recipes, given to me by a good friend of my parents!
