1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

a glass baking dish

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

> Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
> Mix crumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder together in bowl or plastic bag

> Cover with bread crumb mixture
> Put in pan and set timer for 45 minutes
> After baking for 30 minutes, pull out chicken and cover each breast in sauce. Return to oven for 10 more minutes.

Chicken was kinda bland for me. Its probably the “chef” and not the recipe though ;)
