Ingredients

6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 -1/2 pounds) 1 cup bread crumbs, dry 1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated 1/2 tsp. minced garlic 1/2 tsp. dried marjoram 1/2 tsp. paprika 1/2 tsp. lemon pepper 1/4 tsp. salt 5 tbsp. butter, melted 3 tbsp. Dijon mustard

Directions

In a large bag, combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic, marjoram, paprika, lemon pepper, and salt. Shake to incorporate. In a small bowl, combine melted butter and mustard. Stir. Coat each chicken breast with the mustard mixture. Place the coated breast in the bag of bread crumbs, seal the bag and shake thoroughly. Place prepped chicken breast on an ungreased baking sheet or casserole dish that's at least 13" x 9". Repeat for the remaining chicken breasts, spacing them evenly. Bake in a preheated 375 degree Fahrenheit oven for 25 minutes or until the thickest part of the chicken reaches165 degrees Fahrenheit.
