I did half grated parmesan, half shredded. Pretty tasty, though it needed more spice.

This recipe is easy to make and tastes very good! I have made it a couple of times now and it is getting added to my recipe book as a regular. With a little more Parmesan cheese it will easily make 4 pieces of chicken.

This is absolutely the best recipe ever! I have made it a lot of times and it comes out so super moist every time! The only thing i usually do different is I season the chicken first with Montreal Chicken seasoni

As a single guy, I'm always looking for quick and easy meals. This is a breeze to make and very tasty. Only changes I made were to mix some plain bread crumbs in with the flour, and added a little thyme. Didn't have shredded parm so I used grated instead-but next time I'll use shredded. Will definitely be making this often- thanks for sharing.

I made this tonight and it was delish...had a friend over and she said it was like eating at a restraunt! We added mozzarella cheese and a little garlic salt right before we put the chicken in the oven,also we used chicken breast but the chicken was so juicy! Will make again for sure! :)

Great recipe, we loved it. I added a little Italian seasoning mix to the flour. I also made some alfredo sauce and angel hair pasta to go with it and it was a perfect combination with the chicken. We also had salad to round out the meal. We will definitely make this again.
