Chicken Parmesan

3/4 cup breadcrumbs
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast, pounded thin
Coarse salt and fresh ground pepper
1 egg, beaten
2 cups tomato sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
6 oz. mozzarella cheese

Heat broiler. Combine breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese in a shallow bowl. Season both sides of chicken with salt and pepper. Dip chicken in beaten egg, then dredge in breadcrumbs, turning to coat both sides. Spread the tomato sauce onto the bottom of a glass baking dish. Heat 2 T of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place chicken in until golden, about 2 minutes on each side. Transfer to baking dish on top of sauce. Top each breast with a scoop of tomato sauce and a slice of mozzarella cheese. Broil 4 inches from heat source until the sauce is hot and the cheese is bubbly and lightly browned, about 5 to 8 minutes. Yummy served with pasta.
