This is an awesome and actually healthy recipe. It’s really, really good and easy to make low-sodium as well. I can’t eat it too often or my arteries will get lazy.
- 2 large frozen, boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into smaller thin pieces (usually 5 – 6)
- sea salt and black pepper
- Italian (or Greek) Seasoning
- 5 fresh tomatoes, chopped
- 1 small can tomato sauce or enough jar sauce to make enough to taste
- fresh mushrooms
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/3 cup ground sesame seeds
- 1/3 cup ground hemp seeds
- 1/4 cup grated parm
- 2-3 Tbs grape seed or olive oil
- fresh mozzarella sliced in thin rounds (optional)
- Mix tomatoes, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper to taste, sauce (if using), adjust to desired taste and let set.
- Mix seeds and 1/4 cup parm in a large bowl or zip lock (if too moist, add onion & garlic powder) add little ground sea salt if desired
- Wash chicken cutlets
- Season with salt and pepper to taste
- Dust heavily with onion powder and to a lessor extent, garlic powder (replacing flour)
- Heat oil in skillet
- Dredge in egg, drip off excess
- Press chicken into seed mixture so it sticks..
- Brown about 2 minutes on each side.. careful not to burn the seeds!
- Add sauce to 13×9 dish..with mushrooms if using

- Place a mozzarella round on each piece of chicken OR sprinkle with parm.. or both, whatever..
