This is our family's new favorite dinner and when I say favorite, I mean it! We all L.O.V.E it! We should have plenty of left overs and there is never any. I know I got the recipe off of AllRecipes.com but when I went back to find it I couldn't. I'll give it to you Pioneer Woman style. And if you don't read PW I'd like to know what rock you've been hiding under. Now Go and check her out. Now. Thank You. Slice your zucchini and cover the bottom of a 9x13 pan. We like 2 layers cause we adore zucchini. Sprinkle salt, pepper and basil over the top. Then sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese. I could do without the cheese but it's good and the kids (think) they must have it. I don't put much though. Don't pre-cook your zucchini. The original recipe tells you to. Don't. It turns into mush. Unless you like baby food style mushy zucchini, then knock your socks of and pre-cook away. Dip your chicken breasts in a little egg and then cover both sides in breading. We use Shake 'n' Bake Italian Parmesan...It is SO Good. I also pound our chicken breast flat and cut them in 3rds, they cook evenly and faster that way. In a skillet add about 2-3 tbsp Olive Oil and grill your chicken for about 3 min each side. Place your chicken breast on top of the zucchini. Slice tomatoes and place on top of the chicken. The kids and I really like tomatoes, Barry not so much. So he just pulls it off when it's all done. But trust me, the tomatoes are so good. Now place slices of mozzarella on top of the tomatoes, as little or much as you want. Then sprinkle with more Basil. We use lots, cause it's good. ;) Cover and bake at 400 for 25 minutes, remove foil and bake another 10 minutes. Oops, we were so excited to eat it I forgot to take a picture! I had to stop Ryan from taking more so I could take a picture. Hope you love it as much as we do!
