A few years ago, my aunt sent me a little stand up photo album with family favorite recipes. When I was menu planning this week, I decided to check out those recipes. I ended up choosing to make her chicken Parmesan. It’s a one skillet recipe and done in less than 30 minutes. Score!
I was so excited about the recipe that I’m already putting it on the blog!
Hubby loved it! In fact, he had seconds.
