My husband’s mother-in-law reared her children with this recipe. It’s one of my husband’s favorites, and it’s quite simple to make.

Reviews
I made this as written. Will use freshly grated Parmesan cheese next time for even more flavor. I love this easy delicious recipe that kept the moisture in the chicken breast. I used individually packaged chicken so it was super easy. My hubby only eats fish and chicken so it was great finding a new recipe.
Great chicken recipe! The spices are spot on and the butter flavor is so good. My oven cooks a bit hot, so I cut the cook time to 16-17 mins. and it was perfectly cooked. Crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside. Thanks so much for submitting this easy and delicious recipe!
Really good flavor. One of the best chicken recipes I’ve tried! I’ll definitely be making again
This recipe is sooo simple & delicious! I make it exactly as written except for using butter instead of margarine. It’s become my favorite recipe for boneless, skinless chicken thighs, which we prefer over breasts. Moist inside with a yummy, crunchy coating.
So good! Crispy outside, tender inside. Great recipe, thank you!!
This came out delicious! Ended up taking 35 minutes in the oven for me, but other than that I followed the recipe and the chicken had a great flavor. Served with a side of spaghetti with tomato sauce and garlic bread – everyone enjoyed.
Love it! Absolutely perfect, and a fan favorite! Will definitely be making again!
I did not have breadcrumbs, so I crushed up some pretzels instead. This was amazing & the chicken came out so juicy & cut like butter. I had to recommend it to my family because I knew they would like it too.
I make this as the recipe states. It is delicious. My entire family loves it. I never have leftovers. Great recipe.
This had great flavor and crispness for being baked in the oven. Doubled the Parmesan.
Chicken was easy to make and very testy. I actually followed AmyLee’s review. My family said this us a do over! Nice to have a new recipe for boneless chicken breasts.
Very easy a practical recipe. I covered with aluminum foil the baking dish for easy clean up.
This is my favorite chicken parm recipe ever! I use italian breadcrumbs. I make it for over 100 people at my job and it’s amazing! I dredge the chicken pretty well in liquid margarine, I believe the more, the more moist it is!
made a couple changes to fit our diet and likes. left out breadcrumbs to make it low carb and left out oregano because hubby doesn’t like it. we both liked it! thanks for sharing!
I love this recipe and so does my family! It is easy and comes out delicious every time. I have used chicken, turkey and pork… awesome no matter what!
Easy to make and very tasty.
I made it, my hubby was so proud of me…it was so moist and yummie! I definitely will make it again ??
I followed the recipe exactly, and it came great! Super quick and easy…the boxed rice I put on side took longer! The chicken came juicy and tender with an awesome buttery flavor.
Overall I think the chicken tasted great! It had a lot of flavor ! The flavor was also strong, I would suggest cooking it for 10 more extra minutes instead of the 20-25 it says to do ! Because when I checked the middle of the chicken it was still a bit pink ! I also added in some little slices of butter on the bottom of the pan to help keep the chicken moist and cook with even more flavor ! All in all this recipe was very delicious!
Made it as is and wouldn’t change a thing.
easy to make, delicious
