Original recipe makes 2

2 tablespoonsButter; melted

1 cloveGarlic; minced

3 tablespoonsBread crumbs; (italian style)

2 tablespoonsParmesan cheese; grated

6 tablespoonsCheese; (colby-jack) shredded

1/12 teaspoonDried parsley

1/12 teaspoonDried Oregano

1 pinchSalt

2 eaboneless chicken breast halves; (pounded thin)

Garlic Cheddar Chicken For Two Preparation

Preheat oven to 350? f. (175 degrees C).

Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, and cook the garlic until tender, about 5 minutes.

In a shallow bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, shredded Colby-jack cheese, italian bread crumbs (or plain), parsley, oregano, salt and pepper.

Dip each chicken breast in the melted garlic butter to coat, then press into the bread crumb & cheese mixture. Arrange the coated chicken breasts in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Drizzle with remaining butter and top with any remaining bread crumbs.

Bake about 30 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

Notes

The original recipe was for 8 servings but I scaled it down since there is just 2 of us. Also, the original recipe called for regular bread crumbs and cheddar cheese.
