broiled chicken parmesan

this is something that i came to love when my family owned a restaurant. i loved breaded chicken parmesan, but wanted something lighter so i would order this. i think it is sooo much better than the breaded kind!

Broiled Chicken Parmesan

2 chicken breasts, halved and pounded thin(making 4 pieces total)
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese
cooking spray or olive oil

preheat grillpan over medium heat. when heated, spray with cooking spray or lightly oil (i opted for cooking spray to conserve calories). place chicken breasts on pan and cook thoroughly, turning halfway through (about 4 to 5 minutes each side depending on how thin they are)

meanwhile, spread a quarter of the sauce on the bottom of an ovensafe baking dish.

when the chicken is cooked completely, place into baking dish. top with remaining sauce and mozzarella cheese.

place under broiler until cheese is melted and slightly browned.
