1
Cook pasta according to package directions.
-
2
If the pasta gets done before the rest of the meal, drain it and toss it with a little oil or butter to keep from sticking.
-
3
Place bread crumbs and two teaspoons of Italian herb seasoning in a dish (loaf pan works well) and mix.
-
4
Place milk and egg in a separate shallow bowl and mix well.
-
5
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon oil on medium heat.
-
6
Dip the chicken in the egg mixture, then coat with crumb mixture.
-
7
I recommend that you cook the chicken in two batches adding more butter and oil to the pan if necessary.
-
8
Cook chicken in the skillet until browned and cooked through flipping halfway through (about ten minutes total).
-

Remove chicken from the skillet and keep warm (I put it on a plate and in the microwave but dont turn it on).

Repeat cooking the rest of the chicken.

11
Resist eating a chicken breast straight out of the pan like I did.
-
12
They are seriously yummy even without the decadent sauce.

-
14
Add chicken broth and tomatoes and bring to a boil over medium heat.
-

Stir occasionally to loosen browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
-
16
