I did the standard flour, then egg, then bread crumb breading routine, and the chicken turned out nice and moist. As for the bruschetta topping, I found the garlic to be a bit overpowering, maybe because it was mostly raw? I did appreciate the fresh tomatoes and basil.

What a simple, yet DELICIOUS recipe. I made it for the first time for guests, and it came out perfectly. Everyone loved it! I do cheat a little bit, and use a jar of Trader Joe's Bruschetta. It's basically the same as the recipe, but done for me, and it's soooo good! In the summer I'll try making my own bruschetta with garden tomatoes, but in the meantime, Trader Joe's helps make this recipe super easy!

This dish was just okay for me.

Very good if you're looking to cook something on the lighter side.

When my other half, who does not like tomatoes, says this is a 5 1/2 star, that says it all.

Easy recipe with ingredients on hand. I used dried basil and it came out just as tasty! A keeper in this house. Better than eating out!

Given the great reviews and high rating I had great hopes for this recipe. Followed it exactly, and cannot figure out what all the hype is about. Very pedestrian. No one liked it, and all agreed it was "missing a lot of something." The chicken was very bland even though I used a very good Parmesan that I grated specifically for this recipe, and added some salt (I season everything) to the flour. The "bruschetta" on top was just garlicky tomatoes. Definitely deleting this one from the "recipes to try" file!

Excellent, restaurant quality meal that the whole family enjoyed. The fresh basil blends so well. I definately will be saving this one. I can't wait to make it again!
