-
Start by slicing the chicken breasts horizontally.
-
Then, pound the chicken to an approximate thickness of 1/8″. Set aside.
-
Next, set up a dredging station with beaten eggs in one bowl, flour and oregano in another bowl and bread crumbs and cornmeal in a third bowl.
-
First, dredge the chicken in the flour mixture shaking off the excess.
-
Next, drop the chicken into the egg wash and let the excess drop off.
-
Finish by dropping the chicken into the bread crumbs. Pat the crumbs into the breasts. Again, shake off any excess.
-
Heat the oil in a skillet. Use enough oil to completely cover the bottom of the pan. Drop the chicken slowly into the hot skillet. Cook 2 – 3 minutes per side.
-
Remove from the skillet and place on a baking rack.
-
Place in a 275 degree oven and cook for 10 minutes.
-
Add a piece of the cheese and cook until melted - 1 - 2 minutes
-
In a sauce pan, add the crushed tomatoes, oregano, garlic and onion powder and cook until warm. Cook enough to have the extra liquid burn off.
-
Top the chicken, melted cheese with the tomato sauce.
-
Serve and enjoy!
