Easy to prepare, lower calorie version of this dish. For maximum tenderness, I recommend brining the breasts in 2 qts. water and 1/2 C table salt for 1 to 1 1/2 hours and rinsing them in cold water for several minutes. Or, take a kitchen mallet or rolling pin and put the whammy on 'em.

    This was a decent chicken parmigiana dish. I like that the chicken is baked and not fried so its somewhat healthier. I'm not a great cook, but this was definitely not hard to make and it came out well. My family was pleased. We like garlic, so I added more than the 1/2 tsp that the recipe calls for. I would recommend this and I will make it again in the future. Thanks to Myra Byanka for posting this recipe.
