Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
1 cup garlic bread crumbs
1 cup garlic and herb pasta sauce
1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Grated Parmesan cheese, optional
4 kaiser rolls, split

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400°. Pound chicken with a meat mallet to 1/2-in. thickness. Place bread crumbs in a shallow bowl. Add chicken, a few pieces at a time, and turn to coat. Transfer to a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan., Bake, uncovered, until no longer pink, 15-20 minutes. Spoon pasta sauce over chicken. Top with mozzarella and, if desired, Parmesan cheese. Bake until cheese is melted, 2-3 minutes longer. Serve on rolls.
