Lemon Parmesan Chicken

• 4 boneless chicken breasts

Crumbs Mixture:

• 1/2 cup Fine Bread Crumbs
• 1/3 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
• 2 Tablespoons Dried minced Parsley
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Lemon Mixture:

• 1/4 cup melted butter
• 1 small garlic clove, crushed
• 2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Instructions:
Mix the crumb mixture together. Mix the lemon, butter, garlic mixture together. Dip breasts in butter/lemon juice mixture then in crumbs. Place in buttered dish. Drizzle rest of butter over chicken. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake 1 hour at 350 degrees - maybe shorter time if breasts are not thick.

NOTE:
Reduce salt when using prepared Parmesan cheese.
Can freeze ahead but thaw all day before cooking.
If cracker crumbs are used - reduce salt.
If chicken breasts are pounded thin, roll each piece in firm roll and place close together so they do not unroll. Vary cooking time accordingly.
