1 cup seasoned bread crumbs (I use Italian Season, salt, and pepper)
1 egg, lightly beaten
12 chicken tenders fillets, about 1 1/2 pounds
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup bottled marinara sauce
1 cup shredded four-cheese blend
Cooked ziti (or spaghetti) and marinara sauce (optional)
1. Heat oven to 375F
2. Place bread crumbs in a shallow dish and egg in a shallow bowl. Dip chicken pieces in egg, shaking off excess. Coat with bread crumbs.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the chicken and cook for 3 minutes per side. Remove to a 9x13 baking dish. Repeat with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and remaining chicken.
4. Spoon marinara sauce over chicken in dish. Sprinkle cheese over chicken. Bake at 375F for 10 minutes, until bubbly and cheese melts. Serve with cooked ziti and marinara sauce, if desired.
This isn't a picture that I took. But it's close to what it really looks like. Every time I make this I never remember to take a picture because it's too delicious! I just want to eat it! This is a favorite of Sean's too. Not so much for our kids, sadly. But we had ours tonight with spaghetti noodles and it was delicious and comforting. Mmmm.
