This was pretty darn good! I used 3 chicken breast halves cut in half (which is the "official" chicken serving size), but really only needed about 1 c potato flakes and 1/4 c parmesan. Threw the rest away! I used spray butter to coat the chicken and spray on top - these changes brought the recipe to 4 WW pts/serving. After the chicken was done, I spooned some spaghetti sauce on top and sprinkled with 2% shredded cheese (bringing the dish to 6 WW pts/serving) and put back in the oven to cheese was melted. Yummy!

Made this recipe with 4 large chicken breasts but kept the other ingredients the same & that worked out fine! Flattened the breasts between 2 sheets of plastic wrap before coating them & was tempted (but didn't, this time, anyway!) to roll them up & bake them in a casserole dish! Made for a very nice tasting chicken dish ~ Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adopted orphans in the current Pick A Chef]
