PARMESAN CHICKEN PASTA RECIPES

Steps:

• Using the sauté function (on low, if possible), heat the oil in the pressure cooker pot. Stir in the garlic and cook until just turning golden, about 2 minutes. Stir in the marinara sauce, 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Increase the sauté heat to medium.
• Season the chicken with the salt, oregano, and pepper to taste. Nestle the cutlets into the sauce, overlapping as little as possible, then spoon the sauce over to cover the chicken.
• Lock the lid into place and cook on low pressure for 3 minutes. Manually release the pressure.
• Sprinkle the mozzarella and the remaining 1 tablespoon Parmesan evenly over the chicken. Cover the pot with the lid (but don’t lock it on) and let it sit for 4 to 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
• Serve as is or, for deeper flavors and a little bit of crispiness, broil the cheese until golden and bubbling: Heat the broiler with a rack 4 inches from the heat source. Scoop the chicken and sauce into a greased small rimmed baking sheet, trying to keep the cheese on top. Broil until the cheese has browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with basil, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray.
• Cover bottom of baking dish with 1 cup of the marinara sauce. Arrange 3 noodles on top of sauce. Top with one-third of the ricotta cheese, one-third of the chicken, 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese and 1 cup of the marinara sauce.
• Repeat with two additional layers, and top with noodles, remaining sauce and remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese. Spray sheet of foil with cooking spray; place sprayed side down on baking dish, and seal tightly.
• Bake 45 minutes. Meanwhile, in small microwavable bowl, melt butter; mix in bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese until mixed well. Remove lasagna from oven, uncover and top with bread crumb mixture. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until bubbly and bread crumbs are lightly brown. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
