Skillet Parmesan Chicken

Who wants to turn on their oven when there is a heat advisory going on outside?  This recipe is all done on the stove top and only takes about 20 minutes from start to finish.
10-12 chicken tenders
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup shredded parmesan
3 eggs
jar of favorite spaghetti sauce
mozzarella cheese, sliced or shredded
olive oil for skillet

*Heat skillet over medium-high heat with just enough olive oil to coat the bottom.  Mix together eggs in a bowl.  Combine bread crumbs and parmesan together in another bowl.  Dip chicken tenders in egg mixture and then in parmesan mixture until well coated.  Place gently in the skillet and brown for a couple of minutes on each side.  Pour sauce into skillet around chicken (I didn't use the whole jar).  Cover and simmer on low until chicken is cooked through.  Remove lid and cover with mozzarella cheese.  When cheese is melted, serve over your favorite pasta.
