Notes

  • I used a packet of Good Seasonings Italian Dressing Mix: Do NOT make the dressing. You are only going to use the seasoning packet.
  • You can use any cut of chicken: that you prefer. Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 165ºF.
  • I like to cook the chicken: on a non-stick aluminum foil-lined pan.
  • You can use dry bread crumbs or panko bread crumbs:
  • Feel free to omit the bread crumbs: and add more Parmesan cheese.
  • You can use freshly grated Parmesan or the Parmesan cheese: in the green can. Either is fine. I do not suggest shredded Parmesan for this dish.
  • Can Garlic Parmesan Chicken be made in advance? Yes. You can coat the chicken and refrigerate it overnight before baking.
