When I originally made this recipe, I was cutting out carbs. However, I am currently eating carbs, and it is still a regular dish! It is so good that my husband requested I cook it for his brothers while they were in town! If you skip browning the chicken in a skillet, it definitely looses some of the flavor, but is still pretty good. and I add a bit more garlic. oh, and it's very simple!! I am a newlywed and have only been cooking for a few years, but I got this one right on my first try!! I just stick it on a bed of fresh spinach greens and viola a beautiul and tasty meal!! Thanks!!!

Another 5 stars! I didn't have fresh parsley, so I used dried flakes and I already had a jar of low sugar pizza sauce opened so I used that instead of tomatoes. Very easy to prepare and it was done in 30 minutes. I ate this for dinner last night with a side of brussel sprouts and looked forward to my lunch today and served it with a small tossed salad. Great recipe, I will make this often!

This is a delicious chicken recipe, We are watching our Carbs, This really fit the bill. Very easy to make,I cut the recipe down for 2 people. I pounded the chicken breast as they were fairly thick, other than that I made it as the reciped stated, But, using more than 1 tablespoon crushed tomatoes as 1/2 cup is more than 1 tablespoon for 2 chicken breast, the orgional recipe says 1 cup for 4 breast, that is more than 1 tablespoon for each breast. The Ricotta cheese mixture is great. I will definetly be making this again. Will make a great dinner for guest. Thank you Carrie for posting the recipe.

Loved it!! Substituted cottage cheese for ricotta (don't care for it) and it turned out wonderful.
