A rich, cheesy breading locks in this chicken's natural juices, making it moist and tempting every time. Because it can be made in advance, I rely on it often during the week and when entertaining. —Kathie Landmann, Lexington Park, Maryland

Ingredients

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups soft bread crumbs
1/2 cup butter, melted
6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
1/2 cup Dijon, yellow or country-style mustard

Directions

Combine cheese, bread crumbs and butter. Coat chicken breasts with mustard, then dip into crumb mixture. Place breaded chicken in a 13x9-in. baking pan. Bake at 425° until a thermometer inserted in chicken reads 165°, about 15 minutes.

Editor's Note

To make soft bread crumbs, tear bread into pieces and place in a food processor or blender. Cover and pulse until crumbs form. One slice of bread yields 1/2 to 3/4 cup crumbs.
