You are what you eat.

I post this to make a point. Jageroni's menu is a healthy way to make traditional good recipes healthier.  I write healthier because, as with everything else in life, moderation is the key to consumption of food and drink.  This philosophy isn't for every"body", but myself, family, and eventually customers:)  So tonight I am making Chicken parmesan.  A little pasta, protein, sauce, and drink needed to make
"Chicks Jagason Parmaroni"

My step by step process:
Boil pasta and drain.
Pour olive oil(cover bottom of pan) and low-fat garlic cream cheese(1/4 cup) in hot empty pot to melt and meld. *secret technique:)
Put pasta back in pot.  Pour in a 1/4 cup agave, two pinches red pepper flakes, palm full of garlic powder.  Mix and blend, add olive oil as you see fit.  Set aside.
Mix bread crumbs(1 cup) and shredded parm(1/4 cup) together.
Salt and pepper 1 lb. chix breast strips.
Whip two eggs in a bowl.
Egg wash each strip and throw into Bread/parm bowl. *use big bowl
Flip and shake and jump with chix until coated.
Heat pan with olive oil covering bottom.  med. high
Place breaded chix in and fry till golden brown on both sides.
Spray baking pan on put pasta in it.
Cover with chix.
Place Moz cheese sparingly(healthier technique) on top of chix.
Pour marinara in the cracks.
Bake at 325 for 30-40 minutes.
