Oh my deliciousness!
Yes – You would end up wiht 4 thinner breasts. 🙂 You don’t have to cut them thinner… but if you don’t you might have to cook them for longer! 🙂
This sounds yummy, but I do have a question – is the cheese to be mozzarella or parmesan? The name of the recipe is parmesan chicken, but the ingredients lists mozzarella.
I .made this recipe & the family loved it. I used sun dried tomato pesto instead of paste. It gave it a richer taste to it.
