DUMP AND BAKE CHICKEN PARMESAN
Oh my goodness – I have one of the easiest dinner recipes ever to share with you all today! And guess what? You can’t mess it up. This Dump and Bake Chicken Parmesan is fool proof and DELICIOUS!
This is definitely my kind of recipe! It’s quick, easy, and only takes about 5 minutes to throw together – or should i say dump together.
I’m not sure what I love most about this recipe – the fact that the chicken doesn’t have to be pre-cooked, all the cheese that you get with every bite or the fact that it’s super easy to just dump and bake.
