Buttery Parmesan Chicken

HeatherFeather's Note:

A treasure originally found in an old copy of Taste of Home magazine many years ago that I adapted and have relied on many times over the years. Easy, yet elegant and delicious. A favorite dish I have turned to time and time again for guests. Not exactly a diet dish, I know, but worth it once in a while.

• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 45 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 8

Directions:

1. In a shallow dish, whisk together melted butter, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and salt.
2. In another shallow dish, mix together Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs.
3. Dip each piece of chicken into first the butter mixture, then into the crumbly mixture to coat both sides.
4. Set into an ungreased 9x13" glass baking pan.
5. If there is any butter mixture left, drizzle it over the chicken.

I loved this dish. My family loved it. My company loved it. I tossed out my old parmesan chicken recipe and replaced it with this. It is ever so much better.

Definitely something I will make again! I would leave out the salt, since I used salted butter and Parmesan cheese is so strongly flavored.
