My family really likes the crispy coating on the outside of the chicken. I like using Panko bread crumbs with this recipe.
Enjoy! Debbie

There needs to be an emoticon for the little yellow head drooling until he melts away to nothing.

That looks scrumptious. Another recipe to my list to try.

Hey, if you crumb them and put them in the fridge to set the crumb before baking, can you remove the toothpick without it springing open?

You might be able to that. The flour does help to glue it together. Not sure if the crumbs will get soft though.

So you leave the toothpicks in till after baking I guess?

Yes, I leave them in until I serve them. It's no problem removing the toothpicks.

What would be a replacement cheese for this other than parmesan? My wife does not like the smell of this cheese (she reckons it turns her off the food).

How about cheddar

You could try cheddar or just leave the cheese out all together.
