Ingredients

3 Skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Dried thyme
1 tablespoon Dried basil
1/2 cup Butter, melted

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

2. Cut chicken breasts into 1 1/2 inch size pieces. In a medium bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, cheese, salt, thyme and basil. Mix well. Put melted butter/margarine in a bowl or dish for dipping.

3. Dip chicken pieces into the melted butter/margarine first, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Place well coated chicken pieces on a lightly greased cookie sheet in a single layer, and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

These are really great - and so easy! Instead of pounding down the chicken, though, I used my kitchen scissors and just cut the chicken in small pieces. They cooked in the same amount of time and it was easier for me! Thanks!!
