8 cups seasoned bread crumbs

6 egg

1 1/2 cup milk 

128 oz (4 32-oz jars) your favorite pasta sauce

1 lb Parmesan cheese

4 lbs of shredded mozzarella cheese

Oil for frying

Bread

In the bottom of each of 5 9x11 pans, spread a thin layer of sauce and set aside. Mix the egg and milk in a bowl. Add the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese to a second bowl and mix thoroughly. 

Cook Chicken

Fry 

Pour about 1/4 inch deep of oil into a frying pan. When it’s hot dip the chicken in the egg then the bread crumbs. Fry on both sides until brown. (You do not need to cook them all the way.)  Brown all the pieces of chicken and then add the chicken to the baking pans.

Or, Bake

Alternatively, you can place the chicken on a baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes instead of frying. 

Whether you fried or baked the breaded chicken, pour the rest of the sauce over each piece of chicken. Cover each pan with foil. 

For immediate meal bake at 350 for 20 minutes. 

After 20 minutes, remove the foil and add the mozzarella cheese. Bake uncovered for about 15 more minutes or until the cheese is melted.

Serve over spaghetti.
