Directions

COOKTIME 25 minutesSERVINGS Serves 4

If using pasta, cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside, covered to keep warm.

Add the sauce to a medium saucepan and bring to a low simmer to warm through.

If using fresh mozzarella ball, slice mozzarella into slices about ¼-inch thick.

Stovetop: Heat oil in a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed sauté pan over medium heat until hot, 2-3 minutes. Carefully add the chicken cutlets and pan-fry on both sides until golden brown, 4-5 minutes per side, until internal temperature reaches 165°F. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary, adding more oil as needed, so as not to crowd the pan. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.

Air Fryer: Preheat to 400°F. Cook chicken cutlets for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway through cooking, until cooked through.**

While chicken is cooking, microwave the veggie steamer bag according to package directions. Caution: Steamer bag will be hot and may release steam when opened.

Place cooked chicken in a single layer in a shallow baking pan and top each cutlet with a spoonful of sauce followed by an even layer of cheese. Reserve remaining sauce.

Preheat broiler to high with rack 6 inches from heating element. Broil chicken until cheese is golden brown and sauce begins to bubble, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from oven.

For Garlic Knots: (Ready to eat. Heating instructions follow, if desired.) Wrap garlic knots in foil and place in 350°F oven for 5-10 minutes until warmed through.

To Serve: Place chicken on plate along with pasta, if using, and pour over remaining sauce. Top with fresh basil* if desired and serve alongside veggie steamer bag of choice.
