"I received this wonderful recipe from a friend at church," says Candace Black of Durham, North Carolina. A light breading seals in the juices of tender chicken breasts, making them special enough to serve company. Sliced almonds top off the eye-catching entree.

1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 egg whites
6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
1/4 cup sliced almonds
Refrigerated butter-flavored spray

Directions

In a shallow bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In another shallow bowl, beat the egg whites. Dip chicken in egg whites, then coat with crumb mixture. Place in a 13x9-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray.
Sprinkle almonds over chicken. Spritz with butter-flavored spray. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30 minutes or until a thermometer reads 170°.
