Doesn't that look crispy, like it was fried?!!!!
BUT it wasn't and it tastes JUST as good I promise!
This a favorite winning, kid approved recipe!
Adding a nice side salad like my Cucumber Feta Salad or Fresh Fennel would be a perfect side!

I was wondering what if i need to make the parmesan crusted chicken but want make the chicken parmesan for dinner. How long do than i bake the chicken for or do i just put the ingredients on the chicken and cook it for the 30 minutes. I am going to make this for dinner tonight.
Brenda
You should cook the chicken first as the recipe then add your sauce and cheese and bake again.
Kristie Laas
i bake again for the 10 minutes it says..or the 30? Sorry for the questions just dont want to over bake.
Brenda
Once your chicken is cooked which was about 30 minutes. The you add sauce and cheese and only need about 10 -15 to warm sauce and cheese through.
Kristie Laas
Thank you...I did that exactly and this turned out awesome...Myself and my kids loved this recipe.. I will definately be making it again.

I haven't made Chicken Parm since I started eating gluten-free, but I should! I think I could just use ground GF oats instead of the bread crumbs. I usually make my chicken tenders with crushed Corn Chex, but that might be too crunchy for this recipe.

I'll be honest, part-fat cheese freaks me out. But i adore the idea of this recipe so i'll just sub fresh buffalo mozzarella for it.
also, your photos look so natural - i love them!
