Parmesan Chicken

I made this to originally go in my cream of broccoli soup, but didn't know how the breading would handle being in the soup, so we ate it on the side. This is a great recipe that's really easy to whip up and cook in the oven while you're doing other things. The chicken comes out super moist and it's really tasty. It's also easy to play with if you want to add other seasonings to the breading.

Ingredients

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 tbsp margarine, melted
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
¼ cup dry bread crumbs
2 tbsp flax seed
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp parsley
¼ tsp paprika
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper

Heat oven to 400. Spray 15x10x1” pan with Pam. Dip chicken in margarine, coat with combined remaining ingredients. Place in prepared pan. Bake 20-25 minutes or until tender. Chicken tenders may be substituted.

Using chicken tenders or cutting up the chicken breast into smaller pieces makes them very child friendly. Joseph really likes this. I've cut them up into strips. You still cook them the same. Oh yeah, flax seed wasn't in the original recipe. That was me :) You can add less flax seed if you like, as well. I just pick an amount that seems good.
