    Breading:

    1 garlic clove
    1/4 c. oil

    1 lg. jar of spaghetti sauce or homemade sauce

    Eggplant: Pare eggplant and slice cross-wise in 1/4-inch slices. Beat egg and lemon together. Dip slices in egg mixture. Then roll in bread crumbs.

    Chicken: Whisk together the egg and milk, Dip the chicken breasts in milk and egg mixture and then in bread crumbs.

    Saute garlic in oil 5 minutes.

    Then add eggplant slices and chicken and saute until golden brown.

    Use a 9-13 baking dish: Alternate layers of eggplants and chicken with Parmesan, Mozzarella and sauce. Top with Mozzarella. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.


    Sorry...forgot to mention that about 1/4 cup of the parmesan should go into the breading.
