PARMESAN CHICKEN BREASTS


4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1/4 cup butter*, melted
1/2 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs**
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Microwave butter until melted in a shallow microwave-safe bowl.

Combine the breadcrumbs and cheese in a second bowl.

Dip the chicken breasts in the melted butter then lightly coat on both sides with the breading.

Place chicken on a baking pan with sides or on a baking dish that has been very lightly sprayed with cooking spray.

Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes or until nicely browned and cooked through.

*For a healthier dish substitute olive oil, the flavored ones are especially good substitutes for butter.
**You may substitute your favorite low-carb breadcrumbs mixed with 1/4 tsp Italian seasoning. However, there is enough protein in the recipe that most diabetics can get by with the small amount of the reg breadcrumbs listed. You know your body. Use your discretion.
