I made this up one night with ingredients I had on hand, and now it is a weekly request in our house! Everyone always asks for the recipe, and it is so simple. Serve it over a bed of mixed greens for a fancy presentation, or over pasta for a more traditional Italian feel!

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 3 servings

  • ¾ cup grated Romano cheese (Optional)

  • ¼ cup bread crumbs

  • 1 tablespoon granulated garlic

  • 2 teaspoons ground cayenne pepper

  • 2 teaspoons dried thyme

  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 6 thin chicken cutlets

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 green bell pepper, diced

  • 6 sun-dried tomatoes

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 3 ounces shaved Romano cheese (Optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Combine 3/4 cup Romano cheese, bread crumbs, granulated garlic, cayenne pepper, and thyme in a shallow bowl. Press each chicken cutlet into the cheese mixture, turning to coat. Arrange chicken in a baking dish.

  3. Bake chicken in the preheated oven until slightly golden, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

  4. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper, sun-dried tomatoes, and minced garlic to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until bell pepper and tomatoes soften, about 10 minutes.

  5. Transfer baked chicken to a plate; top with bell pepper and tomato mixture. Garnish with shaved Romano cheese.
