Marie's Note:

I made these for dinner tonight and they are scrumptious! Can be made ahead up to and including the breading stage and refrigerated. Then drizzle with butter and bake. Found on the Global Gourmet website.

Really easy to do and turned out really good. Did this as a "candle light and wine" dinner and it worked like a charm. Thanks Marie
