Ingredients
- 6 lrg boneless skinless chicken breast halves
- 2 c. lowfat milk
- 4 c. all-purpose flour sifted
- 6 lrg Large eggs beaten
- 1 pch coarse salt
- 6 c. unseasoned dry bread crumbs
- 1/2 c. extra-virgin extra virgin olive oil
- 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter
- 2 c. Traditional Italian Tomato Sauce warmed, (see recipe)

Directions
- Using a meat tenderizer or possibly a heavy skillet, lb. the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap till flat, about a 1/4-inch thickness. Place the lowfat milk, flour, Large eggs, and bread crumbs in separate shallow baking dishes. Season the Large eggs with a healthy pinch of salt. Dip each breast in the following order; lowfat milk, flour (shake off excess), Large eggs, and bread crumbs (press down firmly while coating with bread crumbs).
- In a large skillet, heat the butter with the extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat till sizzling. Arrange the chicken breasts in the pan without crowding, cooking in batches if necessary. Reduce the heat, and cook the chicken till golden and the juices run clear when poked with a sharp fork, 3 to 5 min per side. Remove to a baking sheet lined with paper towels; pat off excess oil.
- Place 1/2 c. of the hot tomato sauce in the bottom of a 9- by 13- by 2-inch baking dish. Add in 3 of the cooked breasts to the baking dish; cover with 1/2 c. of the hot tomato sauce and half the sliced mozzarella. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts and sauce, and top with mozzarella. Transfer to broiler and broil till the cheese is melted and golden, about 5 min. Remove and serve immediately.
