Breaded Parmesan Chicken

INGREDIENTS:
1 clove garlic, minced
1 stick unsalted butter (1/2 cup), melted
1 C dried bread crumbs
1/3 C grated Parmesan chicken
2 Tbls. chopped parsley
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. garlic salt
1 lrg. pinch Italian Seasoning
1/8 tsp. ground black pepper
2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken meat, cut into 2x2 in pieces or smaller

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 450. In bowl, combine garlic and melted butter. In another bowl, mix bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, garlic salt, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Dip chicken pieces into butter then crumb mixture to coat.

Place chicken pieces in 9x13 in. baking dish. Drizzle w/ remaining butter and bake uncovered for 15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.


* To freeze: Place chicken pieces into two 8x8 in. tin pans and bake 15 mins or until cooked through. Cool, cover with foil and put in freezer.

** To eat freezer meal: I've never done this before, but I think you would want to heat the oven to 350 and bake the frozen chicken for 20 minutes or until hot through. Remove chicken from oven. Heat oven to 450 and bake 5-10 minutes to get the outside crispy.
