Keto chicken parmesan

So easy and so delicious! My boyfriend loves chicken parmesan and he was in love with this recipe. (Takes a lot to impress him) and it was a perfect amount of food. I don’t really like pasta but my boyfriend loves it so I decided to try the whole wheat noodles and they were delicious!! It is much healthier to make them your self but it is allot more difficult so I would just recommend buying it at any grocery store. Here is the website for the whole grain pasta. website- https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/72525/whole-wheat-pasta/

Ingredients for chicken:

2 large skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
½ cup flour
1 egg, beaten
¾ cup dry bread crumbs
½ cup light olive oil for frying, or as needed

Ingredients for cheese spread:

½ cup ricotta cheese
½ cup shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ teaspoon olive oil
2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese for topping

Directions:

Step 1– First you are going to have to preheat your oven to 500 degrees F. Then line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Step 2-Second gently pound chicken breasts between 2 layers of plastic until each breast is evenly thick. Place breasts on a plate and season 1 side with kosher salt and black pepper. Sprinkle with flour; press flour to coat the entire surface. Turn and repeat on second side with salt, pepper, and flour.
Step 3– Than brush excess flour from plate; place the chicken breasts back on the plate. Pour beaten egg over the breasts and coat each side. Cover bottom of a second plate with half the bread crumbs. Transfer chicken to the bread crumbs. Push crumbs up sides of chicken. Sprinkle on the remaining crumbs and thoroughly coat each side.
Step 4– Heat 1/2 inch olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat ,and than cook chicken until crispy and golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
Step 5 Finally mix ricotta and Cheddar cheese together in a bowl. Stir in salt, black pepper, cayenne, and olive oil. Spread half the cheese mixture on each breast without extending all the way to the edges. Dust with Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and drizzle with olive oil.
Step 6 Bake on center rack of preheated oven until cheese is melted and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes.
