Parmesan Crusted Baked Chicken Fillets
Chicken fillets crusted with parmesan and baked. Then roasted red peppers and mozzarella are added and baked a little more.
Ingredients
- 2 chicken filets or 6-8 tenders
- 1/2 cup grated parmasan
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
- roasted red peppers enough pieces to cover the chicken
- 1/2 cup mozzarella grated or sliced
- 2-3 leaves chopped fresh basil or a pinch of dried for garnish
Instructions
- It's easy but yet it gives you more than the title suggests. Pre heat the oven to 350F. First put the grated parmesan in a shallow dish and add salt, pepper and garlic powder and mix it together. Dredge the chicken filets in the parmesan. Push the filets down into the cheese to get them coated. Line a baking pan with aluminum foil. Spray it with oil. Place the filets in the pan and put 'em in the oven. Give them 8-10 minutes. Turn them over and do the other side.
- When they are firm to the poke and the liquid coming out is clear they are done. Add the peppers and the cheese. (You can get canned or jarred roasted red peppers in the store or you could make them and keep a supply in the fridge like we do). Bake them until the cheese has melted like YOU want it.
