Crispy Parmesan Chicken Tray Bake

We love chicken schnitzel but not the mess it makes. In this open-faced alternative simply brush thinly sliced chicken breasts with mustard and top wi...th parmesan enriched breadcrumbs. It’s important to slice the chicken thinly, it not only guarantees the chicken and vegetables will cook in the same amount of time, it means each bite of chicken will have the right ratio of topping to meat.

Enjoy it as a light meal, or add some roasted sweet potatoes for a heartier option.
