Instructions

1
Lightly pound the chicken breasts to 1/2-inch thickness. Season lightly with salt and set aside for at least 20 minutes.
2
In three rimmed 1/4 sheet pans (or whatever you have), put flour into one, beat eggs and milk into the second, and combine the breadcrumbs and seasonings in the third.
3
Working one at a time, coat the flattened and seasoned breasts in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs. Making sure not to leave empty spots at any step. Repeat with all chicken breasts.
4
Preheat the broiler. And set salted water to boil for pasta.
5
Let the breaded chicken sit for 5 minutes before frying. In a medium saucepan on medium-high heat, add enough olive oil to come 1/3 up the side of the chicken. Cook the chicken in batches until golden brown on both sides. Remove from the pan when cooked and place on a sheet tray. Repeat with remaining chicken.
6
When all the chicken is cooked, sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan evenly over the top. Place under the broiler until the cheese melts and is golden brown.
7
Serve chicken over pasta and ladle tomato sauce on top. Garnish with additional Parmesan and parsley.
