Super Easy Baked Chicken Parmesan for Two
"This recipe is based off of a Cooking Light recipe, but it is not pan fried at all. You could easily double this recipe, but I cook for two, so this is perfect for us. I serve this with veggies and crescent rolls."

Delicious! What a fast and easy way to cook chicken Parmesan! It could easily be multiplied to serve more. I used a little bit of olive oil on a foil lined jelly roll pan in place of the cooking spray. Thanks for a fantastic recipe -- it is a KEEPER!! -
Absolutely delicious!!

I am an active lady, and I am not the top chef in the world, but I can hold my own. I love making things that remind me of when I was little, I love trying out new recipes, and I love learning new things to cook. Most of the recipes I post are recipes I loved that I found online, but that I have tweaked just a bit. I do have some family recipes on here too. I love to bake, probably more than anything else in the kitchen. I love to bike ride. I like to read, travel, kayak (I've only been twice, but I loved it), hike, camp, basically any outdoorsy/active stuff.?
