Notes

This dish is best served warm. Pair it with steamed vegetables, rice, or pasta. For extra flavor, sprinkle more Parmesan cheese or fresh herbs on top before serving. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave until heated through. Consider marinating the chicken in olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs before cooking for extra flavor.
