Baked Chicken Parmesan An Italian classic, lightened up. Baking the cutlet as opposed to frying really lightens this dish up while remaining moist and full of flavor. Serve this over pasta or with a large salad to keep it on the lighter side. This recipe is from the archives which first made its appearance back in 2009. I decided to update the photo because my photo skills were lacking back then. We all love this dish in my home, its perfect for a weeknight yet good enough to serve to company. This is also how I bake my chicken cutlets if you want it without the cheese and sauce. Kid friendly and delicious, make this tonight!!
