Indulge in a lighter, oven-baked version of the classic Chicken Parmesan! Tender, breaded chicken breasts are baked to golden perfection, then smothered in rich tomato sauce and melted mozzarella for a comforting and satisfying meal. A delightful twist that skips the frying, making it a healthier yet equally delicious option.

    I didn't have bread crumbs, so I used crushed Ritz crackers. It was surprisingly good!

    I've made this recipe with both regular and gluten-free breadcrumbs, and it works great either way.
