As I post this recipe I am a day and a half away from being done working full time plus 2 hours of commuting a day. I am pretty excited about that. Since I’ve been pulling 45+ hour weeks I have been needing easy dinner recipes. This Quick Chicken Parmesan is almost one of the easiest recipes I make. It is great for a busy work day when you want to come home and throw something in the oven. And it comes with a side of pasta so you know I enjoy it. Chicken, marinara, cheese and pasta, you can’t get much better right?
Ingredients:
-Chicken Breasts (we do two for the two of us)
-Pasta Sauce (we use Ragu or Prego and just pour it until it covers the chicken well)
-1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
-a sprinkling of parmesan cheese
-egg noodles
Directions:
1. Place chicken in a casserole dish
2. Cover chicken with pasta sauce until at least completely covered
3. Spread mozzarella cheese over sauce
4. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top
5. Bake at 400 for 25 minutes, temp chicken to ensure it is done and if not return to oven.
6. Cook egg noodles according to package instructions
7. Serve over egg noodles and enjoy!
See, easy right? It’s a great weeknight dinner and it is delicious. I am looking forward to being able to do some more complicated (but not too complicated) recipes once I am done working full time. I love trying new recipes and having stuff to share!

Visiting from The Shabby Nest Frugal Friday. That recipe looks delicious and it’s even easy enough for me. I’m going to try it for myself; I get tired of eating the same repetoire of meals over and over again and am always looking to expand with simple fast recipes.
Thank you for coming by! It really is easy and delicious. I hope you enjoy it. Hope you will follow us on Facebook or Twitter!
This looks delicious! I am always wondering what new recipes I can come up with using chicken.
I have a child that asks for Red Sauce every night. She would love this quick and easy pasta.
This looks easy to make and so YUMMY! Thanks for sharing on Saturday Dishes. I pinned it!

My sister always wants red sauce. This is a great and easy dish for it.

I love this! Obviously the traditional chicken parmesan is amazing, but the time and extra fat from breading it usually puts me off from wanting to make it. But this looks seriously easy, so I’m putting it in our menu and pinning.
Thanks for sharing at Saturday Dishes, and thanks for being a co-host!
Thank you for checking it out! I hope you enjoy it!
