Wow. It came out great. I was just really tired, so I made this because it was easy. I was really surprised that it came out so good. The chicken – bonesless chicken breasts that had been pounded- was not dried out, was not stringy -was great – after throwing things together and sticking it the oven for an hour. This is a repeat dinner high on the list. Loved it.

I found your recipe while surfing the web. I put in the ingredients I had on hand and whoa laa your recipe popped up. It’s a hit for sure in my home. I would have given 5 stars but it’s pretty salty. I used a sweet spud and Yukon golds.Maybe if I had used more potatoes that would of soaked up more salt? I also sprinkled about 2 Tbsp shredded cheese over the spuds. It’s a very versatile recipe. Thank you. Ann A. from MA

  There is no can of cream of anything in this recipe. Just the dry Italian seasoning mix, if you can’t find that you can use the dry ranch mix as well!

I love this recipe. I also use only a 1/4 cup (or less) butter & chicken tenders. I also mix up the seasoning, though we find the Italian a little to salty. Will definitely will try the cheese from a previous comment.

Love this recipe and make it often, it is great taking a meal to a family. Some modifications that I make are using 1/4 cup of butter and 1/4 cup of olive oil and I sprinkle parmesan cheese all over before baking.
