Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (1 lb)
  • 1/3 cup Progresso™ Italian style bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup fat-free egg product or 2 egg whites
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 small green bell pepper, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) Muir Glen™ organic diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup reduced-fat shredded mozzarella cheese (2 oz)
Make With
Progresso Breadcrumbs

Steps

  • 1
    Between pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper, place each chicken breast smooth side down; gently pound with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick.
  • 2
    In shallow dish, mix bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. In another shallow dish, place egg product. Dip chicken into egg product, then coat with crumb mixture.
  • 3
    In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add chicken; cook about 5 minutes, turning once, until brown on both sides.
  • 4
    Stir in remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (170°F). Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Instead of chicken breasts, you can use 4 boneless pork loin chops, about 1/2 inch thick (1 lb), trimmed of fat. In step 1, do not flatten the pork loin chops. In step 4, cook until pork is no longer pink in center.
