Baked Golden Garlic Chicken

Submitted by EdsGirlAngie

"This is a warm, comforting baked chicken dish with a golden, garlicky crunch. The curry powder works unexpectedly well with the Parmesan cheese, and the dish is particularly good with buttered egg noodles and a crisp salad. Prep time includes marinating in the fridge."

This smelled so wonderful as it was baking! Very easy to put together and then just pop in the oven. I am not rating this for two reasons. I left out the breadcrumbs to make it low carb, and only DH ate it (I don't eat chicken) and he's so hard to get any comments out of other than if it's good or not. He liked this, but isn't used to the curry flavor so that threw him a bit but I was suprised that the curry and parmesan worked together. Since I didn't use breadcrumbs, I topped them with a sprinkle of paprika for a bit of color. All I can say is this smelled SO yummy, and DH did eat it all! (need I say more?:)

Yum, yum, yum!! Came out perfect! Adapts well, also if you don't have the exact ingredients on hand, which is a must for me!
