And I thought that I made a good chicken parm... This was simply fantastic! The panko and the white sauce helped to separate this recipe from the rest of the pack. Followed the recipe as written. Made this for company, as it was easy to put together. The compliments were the highlight of the dinner conversation.

Wow this was amazing. My mind went blank for a bit and I thought I was in an italian restaurant... but I realized I was still in my kitchen and it was that much better. I tried to find Panko with no luck. I saw recipes for it on zaar but was too lazy. So I used regular bread crumbs and it came out great. I did think the amount of bread crumbs was over kill and could have gotten by with 1 cup. It might be that panko is not as bulky as reg. crumbs. Me, hubby and sister in law loooved this. I served with Recipe #136292 , Recipe #314197 and Recipe #12435. Thank you Sandi!
