Chicken Parmesan

This is a simple recipe that tastes amazing, it is also better than any traditional chicken Parmesan I had tried. When you consider it's lower in fat, takes about 10 minutes to put together, it's no wonder why this is my new favorite recipe. Submitted by: MDKIMIST

I didn't give it five stars only because it was too salty for my taste. Next time I will definitely leave out the salt. But a thumbs up from my family! - 10/17/11

Great recipe. I couldn't find Italian chicken sausage so I used another kind of chicken sausage and replace the the dried chopped onion by some grey challots. My husband loved it! - 6/25/11
