Easy Baked Chicken Parmesan

August 27, 2011

Baked chicken parmesan is an a dish that can be made any night of the week. Crispy chicken cutlets are topped with marinara sauce and cheese. To ensure a crispy crust on both sides of the chicken, place the baking dish in the oven when preheating. When the chicken is breaded and ready to go, place the pieces in the hot pan. I would serve this dish with crispy garlic bread and a simple green salad. Others prefer to serve chicken parmesan with spaghetti. Either side dishes would be delicious. Chicken parmesan is a dish that everyone will love..
