Oven Baked Parmesan-Romano Chicken

Submitted by CookingONTheSide

"Parmesan and Romano cheeses combined with Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs create a golden brown crispy coating for this chicken. I have also used Asiago cheese in place of the Parmesan."

These really did crisp up very nicely and were full of flavor. I used 1-1/2 lbs. of thin-sliced chicken breasts and they cooked for 30 minutes. I did turn them during the cooking process, which gave them a nice, even coating texture. Made for Please Review My Recipe Tag Game.

I picked up some Romano cheese by mistake and had been looking for something to use it on and ran across this recipe. I was pleasantly surprised! Delicious and so easy. This is one I will make again and again. Thanks so much.

Yum! This is delicious, and it is so quick and easy to make. Mine wasn't really crispy, because I did drizzle with the garlic butter. But I liked it that way. More garlicky! Thanks for sharing! Made for ZWT.

This chicken has such a great flavor! I used b/s chicken thighs, but otherwise made as directed. We eat a lot of baked-breaded chicken and this is one of my familys' new favorites! Made for ZWT 7-THE HOT PINK LADIES.
