Calling all garlic lovers!

A new chicken recipe full of flavor!  Yay!  The garlic in this dish isn't overwhelming at all, despite using several cloves.  After baking the chicken in the oven, the garlic lends itself to a sweet flavor.  This dish smelled heavenly while baking so I was ready to dig in and was pleased with the outcome.  Enjoy this very simple dish!

Garlic Chicken

2 teaspoons minced garlic (probably 5-6 cloves depending on size)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1.  Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

2.  Warm the garlic and olive oil to blend the flavors.  I did this in a skillet.

3.  Combine the bread crumbs and parmesan cheese in a bowl.  Toss to mix.

4.  Lightly season chicken with salt and pepper.

5.  Dip chicken into the garlic/oil mixture and then into the bread crumbs/cheese mixture.  Place in a shallow baking dish.

6.  Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until chicken juices run clear.

Bon appetit!

(I TOLD YOU IT WAS EASY!!!)
