Chicken parmesan burgers

Dinner tonight!

Chicken parmesan burgers

Ingredients (serves 2):

1 large chicken breast
2 tbsp flour
1 egg
1/4 cup Italian-style breadcrumbs
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Cooking spray
1/3 cup pasta sauce
2 slices mozzarella or provolone
2 hamburger buns

1. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Cut fat off the chicken, then cut chicken breast in half into burger-sized pieces.
3. Prepare a dredging station. First, a small plate or bowl with flour. Second, crack egg into a bowl and scramble. Third, a small plate or bowl with Italian-style breadcrumbs. Add garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the breadcrumbs to taste. Dredge each chicken piece in flour, then egg, then the breadcrumbs. Coat fully in each.
4. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy clean up, and spray lightly with canola oil. Set each chicken piece on the baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes on each side. Toast hamburger buns in the meantime.
5. Add a layer of pasta sauce on top of each chicken piece. Then add a slice of cheese. Return to the oven for 5 more minutes.
6. Assemble burger and enjoy!
