Simple and delicious. I added a bit of garlic powder to the breading, and it enhanced the flavor. Great recipe for a weeknight meal.

Really enjoyed this. The breading on the chicken was spot on. I did add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce for a little kick, and it was perfect. Highly recommended!
