Favorite Oven-Baked Chicken Parmesan

I made this recipe tonight. It was out of this world. It was very easy to put together. I added ricotta cheese to the sauce, along with mushrooms and garlic. I like the fact that the chicken is baked and not deep fried. I am a health nut. I cooked some ziti and put it over. It was the absolute best and FAST.

I followed the recipe exactly except I used beef and carrots and potatoes. Wait it's not the same recipe as you posted. I wonder why people post stupid comments about loving the recipe except........ IF you changed the recipe start a new thread.

For me simple is always best when it comes to cooking - this is a nice simple recipe. Some changes I tried that worked for me (though taking from the simplicity) - I sautéed slices of red bell peppers in the marinara sauce, I substituted golden flax seeds mixed with Italian seasoning for the bread crumbs, and I used Kraft cheese fiesta blend as my cheese. I also slit the breast three times each breast.

Made this tonight. Super easy and delicious. I used seasoned Pablo bread crumbs and used 1/2 cup grated Parmesan Romano and 1/2 cup mozzarella. I also used thinly sliced boneless chicken breast I bought on sale. Enough for 3 meals for 2 people. Highly recommend trying this!

This gets 5 stars because it's simple and tastes great. I make it all the time and agree with an observation that the cooking time needs to be a little longer but that's no big deal.

This chicken was so yummy and simple to make! I can't believe how flavorful it is with just a few ingredients. It's perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.

This sounds great. Cooking tip - when breading food, first chill breaded item/s in the fridge for about 30 minutes before cooking either in skillet or oven. This helps the breading stick better.
