Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Combine breadcrumbs, flour, and red pepper in a small bowl, set aside.

Place chicken between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap, and flatten to 1/4-inch thickness, using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Dip each chicken breast in egg whites, and coat again in breadcrumbs mixture.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add chicken, and cook 3 minutes on each side or until done.

Place chicken breasts in a single layer in a lightly greased 8-inch square baking dish. Top evenly with pasta sauce and cheese. Bake 10 minutes or until cheeses melt.
