Stir together Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs in shallow dish or plate. Whisk together egg and water second shallow dish. Dip chicken cutlets in egg and then coat with bread crumb mixture, pressing to adhere.
Spray large stainless steel skillet with cooking spray. Melt Smart Balance in skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes on each side. Remove to a plate.
Pour water, undrained tomatoes and 1 cup pasta sauce into pan; bring to a boil. Stir in pasta, cover and cook 8 minutes, until nearly done. Place chicken on top of pasta. Pour remaining pasta sauce over chicken and continue cooking until pasta is tender and chicken is cooked through (165°F), about 5 minutes.
Preheat broiler to high. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over chicken. Broil until cheese is melted and lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with basil, if desired.
If using a nonstick skillet, melt the cheese on the stove top by covering the skillet instead of broiling
