I have no idea why the photo above was removed. I gave credit and the link and everything. Next time I make this, I'll take my own photo then pin that, so there! In the meantime, this link should work to get you to a pretty photo and the original site.
I spared you my heinous step-by-step photos, your welcome. I finally tried this tonight after spotting it on Pinterest! The photo looked appetizing and when I clicked through, the recipe looked easy. Please click through for all the ingredients and steps. Too lazy here.
I used leftover homemade sauce, 3 chicken breasts (halved long-way to make 6), croutons from Aldi, mozzarella and grated parmesan. I cooked spaghetti for the side. This was a cheap, easy and kid-friendly dinner. I love chicken parmesan the traditional way but dread the prep so I rarely make it. This was a very close substitute for the taste and texture.
The recipe calls for sprinkling red pepper flakes on the bottom of the baking dish along with the olive oil and minced garlic. I couldn't resist and it did give the dish a kick. I was worried that it would be too spicy for the kids but most of them seemed to like the taste. Just to be safe, I'd skip this step if you're not sure you're family is tolerant of spice.
I'm linking up at "Amongst Lovely Things" for "Pinning it Down" Tuesdays. When I figure out how to grab Sarah's button, I'll do that. In the meantime, I'm stuck with the boring link.

I am a big chicken parm fan so will have to give this a try. Looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, I have this one pinned! I haven't tried it yet...one of my kids is a little afraid of all-in-one dishes like casseroles, but I know my other family members would adore it. Sounds delicious...
ReplyDeleteSarah, Sarah, Sarah. How in the WORLD?!!!!!.....Do you have the energy to post/respond/blog so close to your delivery? Then again, maybe it's the perfect distraction. You're just adorable (so's you little family of flowers). Good idea with the Pinterest-inspired link-up. I will try your instructions but this blogging idiot is not optimistic. I'll say a prayer for a peaceful, joyful, healthy delivery. Although my 4th was the longest wait, it was a lovely, spa-like day. All the nurses and aides were so attentive and sweet.
ReplyDeleteJust warning everyone, my boy with the highest tolerance of spice (in nachos, pizza, tacos and pepperoni rolls) did not appreciate it in this dish. Skip it if you're not 100%.
