We skipped breading in this healthy one-dish chicken Parm recipe to save time.

There’s still plenty of gooey cheese, and the garlic, pepper flakes and oregano lend big flavor.

In sandwich form, it’s easily wrapped in foil and eaten on the go.

Skillet Chicken Parm

Excerpted from The Dinner Plan by Kathy Brennan and Caroline Campion, published by ABRAMS 2017.

In a large high-sided saute pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

Flip the pieces over and cook 1 minute more.

Sprinkle the garlic around the chicken, followed by the pepper flakes and oregano.

Top the chicken with the mozzarella and Parmesan (if using) to taste.

Bake until the sauce is bubbling and the chicken is just cooked through, 12 to 14 minutes.

(Brown it under the broiler, if you like.)

Off the heat, top with the basil leaves (if using), tearing any large ones.

Serve with more Parmesan cheese, if you like.

For Staggered Serving: Serve hot or warm.

Let stand at room temperature for about 20 minutes before baking, uncovered.

We prefer to do this rather than reheating the finished dish because chicken breasts dry out very easily.
