This is an easy chicken recipe for Chicken Parmesan that’s fast enough to cook on a busy night.
5 minutes prior to dinner set the Chicken Parmesan recipe together and place in the oven. Set your timer for 20 minutes and then turn your attention to the veggies.
I love to serve this with”baked” sweet potatoes. Pick sweet potatoes which are short and fat, instead of the long thin ones. The extended sweet potatoes will be fibrous and tough. Simply place 1 small sweet potato per person into the microwave and microwave for 2 minutes. If they’re not soft, cook for a few more moments until they return to the touch. Cover with a towel or foil to keep warm until the chicken is prepared. To start the potatoes for serving, slice down the middle long ways. Press down on the potato shirt, then press inward on the ends. This will start the potato, loosening the potato and giving you space to add butter. Serve with butter or honey and cinnamon.
The combination of the Easy Chicken Parmesan, the orange of the baked sweet potato, and the dark green of the spinach salad appear attractive on the plate. You can garnish this with a little boiled egg slices if desired, but that’s not necessary.
