This is the BEST chicken recipe EVER!!! All I do is add a spoonful or two of marinara sauce on top and Voila!!! Serve over pasta and amaker a salad !!!! Guests will faint at how good it is without all that frying oil!

Very simple. Very tasty. I did not use the bread crumbs or butter but this was a good quick meal for my busy lifestyle. I had some provolone that I needed to use up and this fit the bill perfectly.

I'm making this recipe for the 3rd time in about six weeks. My kids love it! My son asked if we could have that "cheesy chicken" again. It's so easy and you can add whatever seasonings you like - I made it exactly as written althought I only had plain bread crumbs. It was still delicious.

My husband and I are pick food people. I made this recipe with Panko Italian bread crumbs, Italian seasoning and with provolone cheese. After cooking, we put the small loaded chicken breasts on a platter and have 3 dip sauces. Chunky blue cheese, barbecue sauce, and TyLing oyster sauce, which has a delicious salty flavor. We will cook this recipe for our meal of the day, and also serve it to our guests. Very Yummy!

I love this recipe I use it all the time and I've also found it works well with pork too so if chicken's not quite your thing it works just as well with pork. Just follow the directions and substitute deboned pork chops for the chicken its two meals with one recipe.
