  1. Great recipe. Even my hubby who isn't a big chicken parm fan loved it. I added two cloves of garlic and used homemade bread crumbs and fresh basil from our garden.
     
  2. Great! It was one of the best chicken parm recipes that I've tried. I added garlic powder to the flour but made the rest exactly as written. The chicken seasonings were just right and we used up leftover sauce from the previous day so all in all, we were very satisfied!
     
  3. Excellent. I used a jarred Marinara sauce - actually two jars because we like plenty of sauce - and I was very pleased with the results. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe!

Since my childhood i have LOVED food and cooking. Anything associated with food and cooking. I have an extensive collection of recipes, numbering around 50,000 from various cookbooks, friends and family members that have passed them along. I spend a lot of time cooking and gardening. I am currently working on starting my own catering business out of my home and love incorporating other families recipes in with my own. Right now my husband is the main taste tester. Our son is too young to try anything, but my husband can't wait until he can help eat things. My husband jokes i will need to give birth to a football team to put away the amount of food i cook for him to try. We live in North Carolina and both work for the same company as Networking Engineers.
