What a gorgeous day today was! Mind you it felt like an oven the majority of the time, but that's what I love about summer...always an excuse to head to the pool. Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of being a stay-at-home housewife (although I wish I could be!) so I was enjoying the view of this wonderful weather from my office window.
Sigh.
Although the great thing about my job is that I have the internet at my disposal and can find yummy recipes! I was looking for a light chicken dish that would be quick and simple. I had lots of fresh rosemary, thyme and parmesan cheese on hand so this recipe looked perfect! I lightened it up by cutting back on the amount of butter asked for and chose to use chicken cutlets instead of full breasts, but other than that this was pretty perfect on its own!
What I really love most about this recipe, aside from the fresh herbs of course, is the Dijon, Worcestershire and garlic mixture that you dip the chicken into! I found that this combination of flavors really accompanied each other well and made this dish absolutely delicious! I paired the chicken with brown rice and rosemary-olive oil bread and it did not disappoint. Perfect summer meal that was light yet very filling!

Great chicken recipe! I make something similar, and it is very yummy!

Looks gooood! I'll have to try this soon :)
This looks really good! I'm always looking for new chicken recipes...the same old baked chicken breast gets old after awhile!

Kelly,
What a great recipe! I will definitely give this a try. Thank you for posting the nutritional analysis, too! I'm sure you must have a program for that but it sure is a nice touch.
Aww thank you! Hehe actually I don't have a program, I calculate the nutritional information of each ingredient based on the package and use my trusty calculator :) Wish there was an easier way!!
I love panko crumbs - they make everything crunchy without frying. Love the herbs in this recipe.
Looks great Kelly! Thanks for sharing! :)
What a great way to spice up chicken cutlets. Looks super yummy. Adding to my to try list which is getting very long because of you!
That's an interesting combination for chicken, worcstershire and garlic. I would never have thought to use it. This looks great!
WOW this looks yummy! Hubby loves fried chicken. I always do it baked. Will definitely be trying the mustard butter coating.
Love every bit of this!!! I hope you get a break from the typical work day and enjoy some relax time:)
Kelly, wonderfull chicken this one. I may actually try tonight for dinner ;)

Another great recipe from you Kelly. I simply love the appearance of the chicken with the coating on top.
Yet another fantastic recipe Kelly! I am a Parmigiano addict... hehehe :-)
Hey love!
These look amazing! I need some honey mustard for dipping these in! Hope you have a great Thursday! xo
This looks wonderful and so does the pork chops with peppers. I will try these. Thanks for coming by my place and for these great recipes, too.
I sure do love all your healthy recipes!! This is going to be on my to make list!
Wow, this is such a great recipe. So many flavours.
Ooh! I'm digging the addition of Worcestershire and mustard (altho just a smidge for me - not a big mustard fan). I make something nearly identical aside from those 2 additions and it's great - I do half butter, half EVOO, tho.
Actually, I just made fish with this coating (minus worcestershire and mustard) and it's to die for. It's my go-to fish coating.
Well done! A nice dish, masquerading as naughty. The best kind :) Buzzed!
Sounds delicious! I particularly want to try the dip.
Kelly, these look and sound wonderful. I really like that you give us calorie counts per serving!!!!
Mmm! Looks so good! Love your blog - I'm a new follower!

I'm going to have to make this chicken it looks super tasty.
Looks very good! It is like a lighter version of chicken parm, except without the sauce and noodles haha. Fabulous my dear!
These sound great! It's currently 58 degrees here in Seattle so I'm a little jealous of the oven you happen to be living in. At least I'll have plenty of kitchen time to make this dish!
Kelly this chicken look amazing! Love the parm and herb combo!
Your chicken looks awesome and I am glad you lightened it up! Yum!
I wouldn't call staying at home a luxury...at least not when you have three small kids! But these chicken cutlets look like I could whip them up quickly and everyone would love them.
This looks amazing, and I think I have ALL the ingredients already! This may be dinner tonight =)
And I think you're getting way better with that camera of yours, pics look great =)
This looks awesome and super healthy! I love chicken!
YUM!! Great summer flavors!
Love those fresh herbs and panko bread crumbs on chicken. Summer is the time to get creative with fresh herbs.

Kelly, chicken recipe sounds and looks lovely. Thanks for cute advice for Yorkie:)
I just jumped over here when I saw the title of your blog. I'm totally eating right now, but myself is not getting skinny. In fact, it's kind of doing that whole opposite thing. I don't appreciate that.
This recipe looks awesome and I've actually been craving chicken all day.
Kelly, that looks great and so easy to make! Will try it out one of these days!
Delicious! Chicken, herbs? How can you not love this!!
Another great recipe, Kelly, that sounds way more wicked than it is!
Kelly, chicken seems to be the new summer food. Seems like everyone is doing a chicken dish, including me =)
I would love to have some of your chicken cubed in bite size pieces; they will make a perfect snack!
Hi, Kelly: SO nice to meet you! Thanks for stopping by my blog! You have a fun and lovely blog. Can't wait to visit again.
Love all of the herbs in this! Perfect for the summer herbs.
oh wow, these look amazing! and i was on the hunt for a light and tasty chicken recipe for supper tonight, perfect! :)
I love the mixture that you dip the chicken into! I'm going to have to give this a try with my family.
Thanks for visiting my blog today! I hope you stop by again soon!
I love chicken cutlets, but I usually just pan-fry them. This looks like something I'll definitely have to try soon! (Plus, anything with Dijon in it is an easy sell for me...)
Those look soo good! I can't wait to give them a try:)
My husband LOVED this! delish!
Made this last night...it was great! Thanks for the recipe! I feature everything I make on my blog and will send people your way for more great recipes!
