WE LOVED THIS RECIPE!! Very nice and refreshing. The only changes I made were cutting it in half because we are only a family of 3 and a baby (with no teeth yet). May not be "Chicken Parmesan," Because of no Parmesan but VERY VERY GOOD!! Next time I think I will put the Mozzarella on the chicken first, then the tomato and basil. The cheese seemed to be sliding off the tomato. Plus I think it looks a little nicer with the tomato and basil on top. After it was cooked I gave it a pinch of salt and pepper over the top. This would also be good with fresh garlic. OUTSTANDING!! Loved this as much as my other new favorite on here "Recipe #24253" I suggest everyone try This "Chicken Parmesan," it's fresh ingredients and inexpensive. I already had chicken on hand and including our salad it only cost us $12.00 for the entire family! Great meal I can't say enough! Thanks!!
