  This was awesome! It tasted like something from an Italian restaurant. Next time I think I'll skip breading the chicken and just sprinkle a little romano or parmesan over the chicken before serving. - 2/12/09

  Bake the chicken instead of frying it. Just give it a quick spray with olive oil Pam. Cuts out a lot of calories without losing the taste. - 2/3/11

  Really Tasty. I used boneless, skinless thighs, and halved the olives, for more texture, and used fresh basil (which grows really well indoors in winter!) - 1/8/09

  We work at eatting 6 or less grams of fat, thus, I will use 1-2 t olive oil, no romano cheese nor bread crumbs. Sub stewed tomatoes for diced - tomatoes+simmered onions.After everything has cooked, I will add 1 t. grated parmesan cheese to each chicken entre. Serve w whole wheat pasta, & salad. - 1/8/09

  Thanks for this. We thought it was very tasty. As usual didn't have all the igredients in the cupboard so used parmesan cheese instead of romano and 1/2 tsp of caynne pepper instead of red pepper flakes, which gave it a nice kick. It changed the original taste I know, but it was still good! - 1/14/10

  We just fixed this chicken dish for lunch, very very good! I did add fresh mushrooms, and did not bread the chicken before browning. I did sprinkle panko breadcrumbs and shredded parmesan just before serving. I have enough sauce left that I am going to make a pizza, just add some cheese. - 1/8/10

  I cooked this dish last night a bit different, I cooked it as the recipe called for up to when you replaced the chicken to the pan, I covered it with the sauce then I added about 2 cups of grapes and placed it in the oven and baked it covered for about 30-45mins. Yum! The Grapes makes it! - 8/21/12

  OKAY! This is one to make again and again. My husband and I are both looking forward to the leftovers tonight. I served it with whole wheat spaghetti and used the sauce for the spaghetti, too. Next time, I will cut the breadcrumbs and Romano cheese by half--you don't need that much for coating. - 2/5/11

  I used a light coating of Panko...a lot lighter than breadcrumbs...skipped the tomatoes (food allergy) and added chopped red/orange & yellow pepers for the color. I also used a variety of black & green olives(all Italian). - 1/14/10

  Tasty and pretty easy to make (I cheated and used pre-cut chicken tenders). Even better because I can give some of the chicken without sauce to my toddler so I'm only cooking one thing for dinner! - 1/7/10

  when in doubt about how the recipe comes up with its calorie count vs. size/amount of ingredient, just look at the 'full nutritional breakdown' as listed under the Nutrion box. - 10/17/09

  I wish this gave the ounces for the chicken, for accuracy. If the average chicken breast is 5 ounces, that makes for a 1.6 ounce serving of chicken, not very satisfying. I may try this, it sounds good, but I'll make it for fewer servings and just add in the extra calories. - 1/21/09

  Sounds good. A chicken has two breasts. Shouldn't the recipe read "6" or "6 chicken-breast halves" for 9 svgs? I'll use whole, canned, peeled tomatoes, unsalted (or fresh); the sodium content above is close to half my daily maximum. I also find canned/diced unpleasant in texture. - 2/3/11
  
  
• SANSIMEONGIRL

  This is a good recipe but I prefer just using whole chicken pieces (needs at least an hour of low simmering) and no breading; also, I use crushed tomatoes rather than diced, and I add a couple of bay leaves while it's cooking. - 2/3/11

  I love olives!! I baked the coated chicken, cooked the sauce & served the sauce over whole wheat Rotini with chicken on the side - why waste crispy chicken. A large romaine & cherry tomato salad on the side drizzled with good, aged Basalmic vinegar. Love the cheese & crumb coating!!! - 2/3/11

  Lactose intolerant so will use goat cheese or borden's lactose/ fat free cheese on this. WIll sautee chicken with italian season and without bread crumbs. I do wish that instead of saying how many breasts weight would be given. The chickens here seem to come in varying sizes. - 2/3/11

  I ind this recipe too high in calories. I would lose the bread crumbs. Frying the chicken adds a lot of calories. There is too much cheese. The other ingredients are good, but this would make for a different recipe. I find it hard to enjoy a meal this high in calories - 1/8/10

  This sounds wonderful! At first glance, a serving of chicken for this recipe doesn't sound like much, but it's about 3 oz if using breast meat. I think I'll use less Romano to save on cal/sodium and no salt tomatoes...olives have enough sodium! - 1/8/10

  As 'sandlady' said -- this is a small serving of chicken. I wonder, tho, if the recipe is calling for the 'breast' of a chicken -- meaning both sides. 3 separate chicken breasts -- to serve 9 -- means that each breast should serve 3. That is not very much chicken per person! - 4/5/09
