I have a very demanding older son and this is one of his favorite dishes. It is so simple to make and it's simply delicious!

This is a great recipe! Loved it!! I added Italian seasoning to the sauce and I covered my chicken to ensure it would cook fully and retain its moisture. I was afraid that the chicken would not have enough flavor bc it was not a thick covering of bread crumbs etc on the chicken but it was actually scrumptuous!
