Crunch Almond Chicken

I love when I find ridiculously easy dishes like this one that are a hit. Makes me happy :) I found the original over at You Got Served, but here is my adaptation.

1 c fresh bread crumbs (I used seasoned stuffing mix)

1 c blanched slivered (sliced works too) almonds, toasted and finely chopped

2 T chopped parsley

1/2 t ground ginger

1/4 t salt

1/8 t pepper

2 large chicken breasts, cut in to thirds.

1 c italian dressing

Instructions

Marinate chicken in italian dressing over night or for at least 4 hours. (I only did the 4 hours, I bet it would be even better if it was marinated longer)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In medium bowl, combine bread crumbs, almonds, parsly, ginger, salt and pepper. Dip chicken in bread crumb mixture, coating well.

Arrange chicken in a large shallow baking dish. Bake uncovered 30 minutes or until done.

Serve with rice pilaf and steamed broccoli. Serves 4.
