Garlic Chicken


I was really skeptical before making this meal. It just seemed too easy... BUT the reviews and ratings on Allrecipes.com were too good to resist. The other night I made this melt-in-your-mouth chicken and the aroma while is was cooking was mesmerizing! Oh my!! I served with steamed veggies the first time and the second I served with a side of mac n' cheese and peas.

Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoons crushed garlic (I use 3-4 large cloves)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  2. Warm the garlic and olive oil to blend the flavors. (Be sure to mince AND crush the garlic!!! Pop it in the microwave for a few seconds and voila!) In a separate dish, combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Dip the chicken breasts in the olive oil and garlic mixture, then into the bread crumb mixture. Place in a shallow, greased baking dish.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, until no longer pink and juices run clear.
