I loved this recipe. I modified it a bit as suggested by stuffing the chicken breast with fresh seasoning, thyme, rosemary and chopped bacon! I also mixed the breadcrumbs with herbs and black pepper. Yummmy

I made this last night and it was a hit, I split the chicken breast and added Parmesan cheese to the crumbs, also put a little bit of provolone cheese (my favorite) on top and it was delicious!! My husband and daughter said that I was the best cook ever! Which mom doesn't like to hear that! They even washed the dishes!!

This was a great easy and quick recipe. I didn't have any breadcrumbs in the house, so I put a few handfuls of seasoned croutons in a ziplock bag and pouned them into crumbs. Then i tossed the egg coated breasts in the baggie - and presto! Coated breasts!

 Lisa (California) says:
This was yummy! I put parmesan cheese in the bread crumbs, like other reviewers. And I used an Italian cheese blend on top. It was so fast and easy. I pounded my chicken so it wasn't so thick and then cut each breast in half and it was definitely done in the 30 minutes of cooking. I also only had half the marinara sauce called for so I just spooned it on top of each piece of chicken and then spread the cheese liberally. It turned out just right. I would recommend it, and will make it again.

Last night I made this it was easy and great. I use garlic & herb breadcrumbs add the cheese with minced garlic. pepper flakes with the crumbs. Cooked for 30 minutes @ 350°F. Next time I make this I am going to use 2 bottles of marinara sauce, over pasta.

I always use eggs dip chicken in and than I use real grated Parmesan with bread crumb's with Italian seasoning mixed up in it n dip chicken in that 2nd,butter a cookie sheet or flat pan,place in oven @ 350°F for 20 minutes I flip after 10 minutes, 2 golden both sides.It's really good baked,than add cheese than sauce. Some people use pasta with olive oil, Italian seasoning and diced tomatoes toss together and mix with pasta and cut up the chicken and actually use Alfredo sauce instead of pasta sauce.

This was a simple excellent dish. Easy to prepare and no frying! I added Parmesan cheese to the bread crumbs for added flavor, then after baking for 25 minutes, slathered the chicken with bottled pasta sauce until fully covered. Threw on two generous handfuls of shredded mozzarella, baked for another 15 minutes and the dish came out perfect! Grazie LK!

I took the basic recipe and used Prego Italian Sausage and Garlic Sauce and increased the used 3/4 cup of Shredded Parmesan Cheese and 3/4 cup of Shredded Six Cheese Italian... and increased the final bake time from 10 to 13 minutes. It was screaming!!! Thanks for the base recipe it worked great.
