    Not to take away from the recipe -----but I do this with thin chicken filets and do them in a Pammed pan on top of the stove. When they are in the pan I then Pam the top side before they are turned over. They are done in less than 5 minutes. - 2/19/09

    Looks like something I have made (but not for a while so I am glad to see this recipe. OP, next time take off your cap lock. Directions are a bit hard to read all run together. - 2/19/09

    next time I will definitely drop the bread crumbs down to 1/4 cup and I think I'll be able to get away with only using one egg white. I'm not a big fan of throwing things away. But it tasted great! - 2/11/09

    The olive oil VS egg whites (GRINGITAJILL) sounds interesting... I wonder what the difference in cal & fat would be. ANYWAY, thanks for giving me something different to 'do' with chicken besides the same o' same o'. - 1/28/09

    This was really good. I coated the chicken with olive oil instead of egg whites. To me it seems like the bread crumbs stick better this way. Other than that, I didn't change anything and it was GREAT! - 4/14/08

    Frozen chicken breasts that are brined have a lot of sodium but I would assume most of the sodium came from your choice of Pasta sauce. They are normally very high in sodium. - 11/10/11

    Made this for my picky eaters and guess what? They loved it. Filling and tasty. We will be having this one again only I may pound out the chicken like a paillard. Either way, it is delish. - 1/29/11
