Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Place chicken between sheets of waxed paper. Flatten to thickness of 1/4 inch using meat mallet or rolling pin. Season with salt. Combine breadcrumbs, 1/2 teaspoon oregano and 1/2 teaspoon basil in shallow bowl. Dip chicken in eggs. Dredge in breadcrumbs.

Melt butter with oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Add chicken and cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to ovenproof platter. Place in oven.

Add garlic to same skillet and saute over medium heat until golden, about 1 minute. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce and remaining 1/2 teaspoon oregano and 1/2 teaspoon basil. Simmer until thickened, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes.

Spoon sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Return chicken to oven just until cheese begins to melt.
