I made this for dinner tonight and my boys (4, 7) were licking their plates clean :) Will be making this again soon! Thanks for the recipe.

I liked this recipe, however, I tend to do things a bit different. I was making 7 servings today and I decided to use 3 eggs instead of one, and I also fry the chicken in olive oil before baking it. I accidentally put the sauce on first, it tasted just as good. ;) Very good recipe!

Great and easy! My 10 year old does not like pasta sauce or tomatoes. She yelled out this chicken is awesome. Rates it a 5/5. So glad there is a recipe that does not require frying the chicken (saves on dishes). My mother said we have to make at least 2 pounds of chicken next time. Thanks

Getting ready to prepare this for the Girlfriend and family, cant wait! Gunna coat the bottoms of the pan with sauce before adding chicken. Also gunna thin the eggs down with Italian dressing and cut the breast in half. :)

Just made this for dinner. I will never fry a Chicken Cutlet again! Followed the directions perfect. Did add Parmesan cheese to bread crumbs and made sure the cutlets were not that thick. Perfect

The best way to make sure the chicken is done is to use a digital thermometer, 165°F in the center is a must.

Also, I strongly suggest frying the chicken on both sides so the bread crumb stays on well, just before putting it in the oven! I enjoy to put Provolone cheese on top instead. GREAT TASTE TRUST ME!

Prepared this recipe for 8 family members yesterday. Ages ranged from Seniors, teenagers and 40 something, they all gave "thumbs up" on this recipe. I mixed Panko Parmesan-Italian bread crumbs with freshly grated Parmesan cheese. I pounded the large chicken breast down to 1/2" so the 20 minutes in the oven was perfect. I covered the chicken with marinara sauce and shredded Parmesan cheese the last 10 minutes of baking. Very tender and tasty... Definitely a keeper!

Great recipe that is easy and fast to put together. My husband who can be picky about certain foods said this is the best he has had for Chicken Parm. Thank you for posting this recipe for everyone to use.

I'm 14, I found this on the internet because I wanted to try something totally different and my mom is always at work. She took me to the store to get the extras I needed and I made it. All I can do is give myself a pat on the back because its MARVELLOUS!!!

I made this dish tonight and me and my husband,just loved it!! Thank you so much for sharing. Most of the time I'm at a loss at what I can do with chicken. :D

I loved your idea for adding Parmesan to the bread crumbs. I used Panko, Italian seasoned ones cause its all I had. But we loved it just the same.

I don't enjoy cooking, at all. I made this last night and it was great. The only thing I changed was baking the chicken in beer (Miller Lite, not the good stuff). It was very good and very juicy. The best part, it did not take that long to make.

 Tinya (Pennsylvania) says:
1 tbsp. of dried oregano, basil and 1/4 tsp. dried thyme added to plain bread crumbs instead of the already packaged Italian bread crumbs gives this dish a wonderful lift. Easy, simple and delicious.
