Who else is tired of the same old chicken breast recipes? I often struggle with coming up with new ways to prepare chicken because we eat A LOT of it in our house. I love this Parmesan Crusted Chicken recipe because it only calls for just a few ingredients which of course is the perfect weeknight meal.
QUICK TIP
- Grate fresh parmesan cheese yourself because pre shredded cheese is usually coated in starch will prevent the cheese from sticking to the chicken and melting properly.
- Be sure to spray the foil lined sheet tray with non stick spray to prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan.
- To reheat, pleace on a foil lined sheet tray sprayed with non-stick spray and bake for about 7ish minutes.
