Chicken Parmesan Cast Iron Skillet Recipe Instructions

Place your chicken breasts on a large cutting board, trimming any excess fat. Season the chicken liberally with salt and pepper on both sides.

In a shallow bowl mix together the Italian bread crumbs, parmesan, basil, and oregano.

Dip each chicken breast into the egg and then into the bread crumb mixture, making sure its coated evenly.

In a cast iron skillet add oil to fill the pan until it's ½- inch deep.

Line a large plate with paper towels and set aside.

Place 3- 4 pieces of chicken in the hot oil. Allow the chicken to cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Pour the half of jar of spaghetti sauce in the skillet and place all the chicken into the sauce and top the chicken pieces with fresh mozzarella cheese and more sauce on top.
