1 tsp. Italian seasoning
1/4 tsp. garlic salt

1 tsp. dried parsley flakes
2 lg. boneless chicken breasts (1 1/2 to 2 lbs.), split and skin removed

Mix tomato sauce, Italian seasoning and garlic salt in 2 cup measure. Cover with waxed paper. Microwave at high 2 minutes. Stir. Reduce power to medium (50%). Microwave 5 minutes, stirring once. Set sauce aside.

Mix corn flake crumbs, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and the parsley flakes. Dip chicken breasts in beaten egg, then in crumb mixture. Place in rectangular 8x12 inch baking dish or 10-inch square casserole. Cover with waxed paper. Microwave at medium-high (70%) until chicken is tender, 9 to 14 minutes, rearranging after half the cooking time; do not turn over.

Pour sauce over chicken. Sprinkle Mozzarella over chicken breasts. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Microwave at medium-high (70%) until Mozzarella melts and sauce is hot, 2 to 5 1/2 minutes.

These recipes are prepared in a 700 watt microwave oven. If oven is less than 700 watts, adjust time accordingly.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
