Since it isn't the traditional meal, I don't call it chicken parmigiana. That, and the kids love the sound of "chicken in pyjamas". It sounds much more fun, food wise.
So, as I said, its my version, so I cheat a little.
- 2 chicken burger patties per person, or one chicken breast schnitzel per person
- 1 large jar of taco sauce per 10 patties (5 schnitzels), or a jar of pre made tomato salsa.
- 1 slice of cheese, or a generous pinch of grated cheese, per patty
- Precook the chicken. You can shallow fry it, or deep fry it. Either way, make sure it is cooked.
- Place each piece of chicken on a tray (as many on there as you can fit. You can generally fit 9-ish chicken patties on a biscuit tray)
- Place a few tablespoons of the sauce/salsa in the middle of the chicken.
- Put enough cheese on the chicken to make sure it's covered.
- Cook in pre-heated oven, on moderate heat (180C or 150F) for around 15 minutes, or until cheese is golden brown
I served this with blanched mange tout for the kids, and got told yet again that I'm the best cook in the world.
*grin*
I know they're fibbing, but I love them for it anyways.
