I found another Sophia Loren chicken. It's from a Suzanne Somer's site.
Sophia Loren Chicken
This is so good!!
Cut 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 3 lbs.) into finger-sized pieces. Set aside (wash your hands!)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine 1 Cup (150 g) grated parmesan cheese (the canned kind) with 2 T. (8 g) dried parsley, 1 T. (3 g) dried oregano, 2 tsp. paprika, 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper.
Line a 9" X 13" (22.5 X 32.5 cm) baking pan with foil.
Combine 1/2 Cup (120 ml) extra-virgin olive oil and 6 cloves minced garlic in another bowl. Dip each chicken finger in the olive oil, roll in the cheese/seasoning mixture, and arranged in the foil-lined pan.
Bake for 45 minutes. After removing from the oven, place the chicken fingers in shallow dish and pour hot sauce over chicken, thoroughly coating each piece. Grab a handful of napkins and enjoy.

NOTE: I have made this twice now. The first time, I didn't have any grated parmesan cheese, so I just used regular shredded cheese, and it worked fine. Both times, I needed twice as much cheese, spices, and olive oil than they specified here, and I had LESS chicken! So make sure you have enough of everything to double it if needed.
I didn't want it as messy or spicy, so I left off the hot sauce and it was still delicious.
I don't know why it says 45 minutes because it's done long before that (I may have a fast oven). You want to check a few pieces to make sure they are done and no longer pink, and cooked through, but you really don't want to over-bake them so they come out dry.
This was really delicious with the
Fauxtatoes recipe...the oil and spices makes a kind of sauce that was great over them.
Let me know if you make it and like it!
I'm allergic
