• Preheat oven to 425°F. Drizzle or Spray a 13x9 inch (or similar size) casserole dish with Olive Oil.
• Add all of the Crushed Tomatoes, Tomato Paste, Garlic Powder, Dried Oregano, Salt, and Ground Black Pepper to the casserole dish and then whisk together so the tomato paste is fully mixed in. Whisk in the chicken broth. Then stir in the pasta. Finally, mix in 1/2 cup of the parmesan cheese.
• Slice the zucchini in long, flat 1/4 inch slices, from stem to stem.
• Cut your chicken breast lengthwise from the side to create 2 thin breasts. Season both the zucchini and the chicken with a sprinkle of dried oregano, salt and pepper.

• While the casserole is baking, make the breadcrumb topping by adding the panko breadcrumbs to a bowl and drizzling over the olive oil and stirring to combine. Mix in the rest of the ingredients, the 2 tablespoons of parmesan, garlic powder, salt, pepper, parsley, and dried oregano. After 30 minutes in the oven, remove the casserole and sprinkle the topping all over the top.

• For the sauce, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
• Add the onion, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Cook, stirring, 1 minute. Cover, reduce heat to very low and cook until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. (Check a few times during cooking; if vegetables begin to brown, add 2 teaspoons water and stir.)

• Cut chicken breasts in half to make 6-8 large, thin cutlets.
• On a plate, combine the bread crumbs, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan and the remaining chopped parsley.
• Place the egg white on a second plate.
• Dip the chicken into the egg whites, and then into the bread crumb mixture to coat completely; set aside on a large plate or platter.
• Heat 2 teaspoons oil in each of two nonstick 10-inch skillets over medium-high heat.
• Add half of the chicken to each skillet and cook until lightly browned on one side, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Flip, and cook until chicken is firm, and lightly browned on the other side, 1 to 3 more minutes.
• To serve, re-warm the zucchini in the tomato sauce over medium heat.
• Use tongs to make a "twist" of zucchini pappardelle on each of 4 plates.
• Lean chicken cutlets against the side of zucchini.
• Scoop 1 tablespoon ricotta onto each plate, and spoon remaining tomato sauce on top of the chicken.
• To garnish each plate, drizzle chicken with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon Parmesan.
