Servings: 6

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup dry bread crumbs - ( I use the parmesan bread crumbs from shake and bake)
6 slices of Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a bowl, blend the olive oil and garlic. In a separate bowl, mix the bread crumbs, basil, and pepper. Dip each chicken breast in the oil mixture, then in the bread crumb mixture. Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, and top with any remaining bread crumb mixture.
Bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear. About 10 minutes before you pull it out of the oven. Put the parmesan cheese on top and let it melt.
