Ingredients
To create this recipe, you'll need the following ingredients:
1 lb spaghetti
1 lb chicken breast
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups marinara sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tbsp olive oil
Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Spaghetti
Start by cooking the spaghetti according to the package instructions. Drain the spaghetti and set it aside.
Step 2: Prepare the Chicken
Cut the chicken breast into bite-size pieces. In a bowl, mix together the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In a third bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 3: Coat the Chicken
Dip each chicken piece first into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and finally into the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat until all chicken pieces are coated.
Step 4: Fry the Chicken
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and fry until golden brown and cooked through. This should take about 5-7 minutes per side. Once done, remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
Step 5: Prepare the Sauce
In the same skillet, add the marinara sauce and let it simmer for a few minutes. Add the cooked spaghetti and fried chicken to the skillet and toss everything together until well coated with sauce.
Step 6: Add the Cheese
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the spaghetti and chicken mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt for about 2-3 minutes.
Step 7: Garnish and Serve
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve hot.
