Parmesan Chicken Bake

My friend Judith, a really good cook, gave this recipe to me.

1 cup butter or margarine
1 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, crushed
Salt and pepper to taste
1 whole chicken, disjointed or 6 chicken breasts

Melt butter. Set aside. Combine bread crumbs, cheese, garlic, salt and pepper. Dip chicken into butter then into bread mixture. Put in 9x13-inch baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 50 to 55 minutes. Yield: 6 servings.

*Judith's Notes: Sometimes I substitute crushed Ritz crackers for the bread crumbs and sour cream instead of butter. I don't always add the garlic either. I usually just use salt and pepper and lemon pepper. I think I only start with about half the butter and melt more if I need to. I can usually do more than 6 chicken breasts, too.
