Quick Chicken Parmesan

Ready to go in the oven. The chicken patties are under the ham.

All Done!

INGREDIENTS:
2 cups Prego Traditional Pasta Sauce
4 fully cooked breaded chicken cutlets
4 thin slices cooked ham
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (4 oz)
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

RECIPE:
1. Spread 1 cup of the pasta sauce in a 12x8x2-inch shallow baking dish.
2. Place the chicken cutlets over the sauce. Spoon 1/4 cup of the remaining pasta sauce down the center of each cutlet. Top each with 1 slice ham and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese.
3. Bake at 425*F for 10 minutes or until the cheese melts and the sauce is hot and bubbly.

MY NOTES:
I went to the store with 3 kids and couldn't find the breaded cutlets, but I did find chicken patties. I think it would have been better had I the patience to search for the cutlets with all my kids with me or to use regular chicken breasts. But, the patties were okay. They just tasted a bit too much like a chicken nugget for my hopes with this dish. It did taste good. It's always fun to try something new. May not be one I do over and over again, but it is one that I may experiment with again. My family liked it but nothing to rave about.
