I forget where I first heard about doing that, likely something from a
PBS cooking show. The fresh (thinly sliced) mozzarelle oozes out of the
baked chicken into the tomato sauce. It's wonderful.

I've nevr made veal parmesan. I much prefer lightly crumbed veal
piccata with lemon and capers. I don't do that very often.
