This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.


2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup dry bread crumbs
2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a bowl, blend the olive oil and garlic. In a separate bowl, mix the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, basil, and pepper. Dip each chicken breast in the oil mixture, then in the bread crumb mixture. Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, and top with any remaining bread crumb mixture.
Bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

love it!
Really, now you love it? Because you're the same person that posted the last rather incoherent comment about it tasting bad.

I didn't taste the garlic really. It was crunchy and bland.

This dish is easy to make and tastes great! It's nice with a side of pasta and marinara sauce.
