Chicken Parmesan

I hope everyone had a great weekend, and all you dads had a great Father's Day!

If you missed it, head over to HerKentucky for my KY Bourbon Barrel Beer Cheese recipe in celebration of the Winchester Beer Cheese Festival!

So this is more of an undone Chicken Parmesan.  What do I mean?  Well, the chicken isn't breaded and fried first!  Not only unhealthy, but it's also time consuming.  Instead, I browned some bread crumbs and sprinkled them on top because if not, you would end up with soggy chicken.  That's not good!

I am no stranger to Chicken Parmesan; I've made it too many times to count!  In fact, the hubby said this was the version that he loved the best!  I had to agree; I didn't mind eating this for lunch for two days straight!

Have you tried making Chicken Parmesan?  Have you tried an undone version like this?
