I love homemade Italian! Probably one of my favorite things to make and eat. (Besides chocolate, that is.) This chicken parmigiana is a great dinner idea for your family, and the preparation is easy! Another great thing about this dish: it's baked and not fried, unlike other versions of chicken parmigiana. Much healthier!

Ingredients
6-8 pieces of chicken
2 c. bread crumbs
3/4 c. parmesan cheese
3/4 c. parmesan cheese
1/4 c. parsley, chopped
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp oregano
...
Directions
- Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl, excluding the chicken. Place in a shallow dish to dip the chicken.
- Dip the chicken in beaten egg then coat with the mix. Place on a cookie sheet covered in foil and bake for one hour at 350 degrees.
- After the chicken is done, sprinkle each piece with parmesan cheese and place in the oven to melt.
* This chicken is so good when served with a side of spaghetti and tomato sauce. For an extra bit of flavor, top the chicken with some tomato sauce after the cheese is melted.
* I used three boneless skinless chicken breasts and cut them in half, since there are only two of us to feed. We had about half the breading mix leftover. I just put it in the fridge and will use the rest sometime this week. Perfect!
