Baked Italian Chicken Scampi

Chicken pieces breaded in a Parmesan, Italian seasoned breading and baked in a garlic, olive oil butter sauce. I like to serve some pasta with marinara sauce on the side. Perfect busy weeknight dinner as it's only 5 minute prep while oven is heating up and 25 minutes to bake.
