100% would make again

The savory coating on this chicken has the satisfying flavor of Parmesan cheese. It's easy enough to be a family weekday meal yet impressive enough to serve to guests. When I make this chicken for dinner, we never have leftovers. -Schelby Thompson, Winter Haven, Florida

I made this for a dinner party last night and it was simple to put together and extremely delicious! I love the flavor plus the chicken was super moist.

My family and I absolutely loved this! The chicken was tender and had a wonderful flavor. This has become a family favorite.

Excellent! It's going into my "Blue Ribbon" file. The whole "Editors Meal" (1996) it was part of is outstanding! I made everything except the dessert (I rarely get to them).

This was so good! It's the only parmesan chicken recipe I'll ever care to make! And, I only used about 1/8 cup parmesan cheese (I didn't know I was almost out), and used Italian breadcrumbs. It was still superb!

I don't like mustard. But I'm going to try it anyway.

The last 10 to 15 min. top with left over red sauce & montz. cheese !

I've been making something very similar to this for nearly 30 years (I copied my recipe out of a cookbook put out by my college roommate's synagogue). My version calls for a minced clove of garlic to be added to the butter/Dijon/Worcestershire mixture, and for a generous shake of parsley flakes in the breading mixture. I do like the proportions of breadcrumbs to Parmesan in this version better, though!
