Comments
This is very quick and easy to make and while the chicken is cooking you can make you sides whatever you want. I usually just make a starch and a salad as the veggie is the broccoli. This is very good, hope you enjoy!!! When you lay the broccoli in the chicken I usually use 1 to 3 stalks depending on size of cutlets.
