I renamed this super-simple version of Chicken Parmesan to help my son be open to it. It worked! The best part: these stayed perfectly moist, even on day 2. As always, try to incorporate vegetables into this. I didn't have room in the pan, but next time I'll probably try tossing chunks of bell peppers, onions and zucchini with the sauce in the pan, too.

Ingredients:

  • 3 large organic chicken breasts (about 3 pounds total)
  • 1, 24-ounce jar pasta sauce
  • ¼ cup organic Parmesan cheese
  • 2 Tbsp. organic Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup organic shredded mozzarella cheese

 Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Wash the chicken breasts and pat dry. Cut each breast into 2 equal parts.
  3. Combine the pasta sauce and ¼ cup Parmesan cheese in a 9 x 13-inch baking pan. Add the breasts and turn several times to coat completely.
  4. Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and an instant-read thermometer reads 170 degrees.
  5. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses over the chicken and bake an additional 5 minutes, uncovered.
