A super fast, super tasty, kid-friendly supper!

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter
  • 3 cups Good Marinara Sauce
  • 1 package (3.5 Ounces) Pepperoni Slices
  • 4 slices Mozzarella Cheese
  • Fresh Parsley, Minced
  • Salad Or Cooked Pasta, For Serving

Preparation

Use a sharp knife to slice both chicken breasts in half through the middle, so that you wind up with four thinner chicken cutlets. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat a heavy skillet over medium to medium-high heat and add the butter and olive oil. Cook the chicken until it has nice color on the outside and is cooked through, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Remove the chicken to a plate. Pour the marinara sauce into the pan and stir to heat through.

Nestle the chicken cutlets in the sauce, the arrange pepperoni slices over the top of each one. Lay a mozzarella slice on top, then cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the cheese is melted. Sprinkle with parsley.

Serve immediately with a side salad, or over pasta, with marinara spooned over the top.

(Note: I only used 2 chicken cutlets for this photo, but the recipe calls for 4.)
