It's Shake and Bake, and I helped myself to the whole thing.

Delish and oh so easy! If you aren't baking chicken, you aren't eating baked chicken. This particular day i decided to batter it which means to cake it in flour, roll it around in a raw egg then cover that with "Italian bread crumbs"- the kind you buy in the store. 350 degrees, 15 minutes flip over 15 more minutes. you can do a few min less if you wish. Obviously you can bake a few minutes longer, but I only recommend this if you like dry and possibly burned food.

Topped with Marinara sauce and Parm cheese. Incredible.

Did I do that?

Let truth be told, you don't need a recipe to bread and bake chicken.

First, I hit the chicken breast a few times with a meat tenderizer, mostly because it was available. Then, I mixed up some bread crumbs, flour, and egg, tossed the chicken in it and put it in a pan over olive oil. And because that wasn't perfect, I topped it with flour and bread crumbs again before putting it in the oven.

I'll be the first person to tell you, this was amazing. I'm very picky about chicken and hardly order it when I'm out because it tends to be dry, but I did something right. Something so right. I'm not trying to say I'm an amazing cook, but Einstein did say that coincidences are God's way of remaining anonymous. As you can see by the picture, I paired it with spaghetti. Blah blah blah.
