Baked Chicken Parmesan

Great taste and lower calories than the traditional method.  Very easy and quick to make.

This recipe is a must! I’ve made it several times and it always comes out great. Tonight I’m going to experiment with Greek yogurt instead of butter or olive oil (I’ve done both and both are delish)! My mom also started making it!
