This is the 1st recipe I've seen that calls for dipping chicken in Italian dressing before breading, and it makes a huge flavor difference! My husband loved it! I don't use store- bought Italian dressing because of the soybean oil, so I just made my own by mixing my Italian dressing seasoning mix with olive oil and letting it sit for about an hour before making the recipe. Also, if you are like my husband and like your chicken very crunchy, just serve the sauce on the side instead of baking it on the chicken :)
6 boneless, skinless chicken breast
1/2 cup bottled Italian dressing (or make your own!)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1/3 cup breadcrumbs (I used organic Panko because it didn't have msg)
1/2 tsp. Italian herbs
1 cup marinara sauce
4 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese
Coat chicken in Italian dressing. (It is even better if you let it marinade a bit :) Blend remaining ingredients and coat chicken in mixture. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or more. When barely done, spoon marinara sauce n a strip across centers of breasts. sprinkle mozzarella over sauce and return to oven until cheese is melted and sauce is heated through.
