I love this Parmesan & Herb Baked Chicken Breast! We are definitely a poultry-eating family and I do try my best to create a variety of recipes. I have to admit that I have not tried this one, but it looks delicious! So thanks for sharing! Will give it a try!
This chicken looks so good! I love healthy recipes that are just so good you don’t even notice the lack of calories! 😉 Always looking for new ideas so will give it a try.
This recipe is perfect because it is both healthy and gluten free. My husband loves fried chicken but of course he cant have it as often as he would like. I have cooked with almond flour before and enjoy the taste a lot.
I’m sure I would be excited if someone made this for me! It looks like a great chicken variation. I’m always looking for new ways to cook chicken.
Chicken Breast is my favorite part of a chicken, I would love and enjoy this recipe for sure and my family too.Your recipe looks so good, delicious and tasty. I should try this great recipe.

This sounds amazing for dinner! My family loves chicken and I am all about easy but flavorful dishes that don;t require a lot of attention so this sounds perfect!
Congratulations on losing 40 lbs, that is huge for you – and from looking at your post on your disease and the book you found, it sounds like a healthy plan without pills – We did something similar, but with Yeast Allergies. Which the doctors were prescribing pills for my hubby – but my nutritionist convinced him to eat differently and it works for him and I’ve been eating healthier every day for years and find new ways to get better.
Big hugs on this journey for life!
Yum! that looks really tasty, and if I was still eating meat I’d totally make that! Thanks for sharing!
Hi, is garlic powder scd legal? New to the diet and really want to try this recipe. Sounds delicious!
There are some brands that are legal but to be safe I make my own. I just dehydrate garlic cloves and then grind them down to a powder. It’s simple and you will know it’s SCD legal because you made it.
This looks SOOOO good. I just pinned it.
