2. Prepare Coating: In a shallow bowl or plate, mix together the herb-seasoned stuffing mix and Parmesan cheese.

3. Coat Chicken: In another bowl, beat the egg. Dip each chicken breast half into the beaten egg, ensuring it’s well-coated.

4. Apply Coating: Transfer the chicken from the egg mixture to the stuffing and cheese mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating to both sides of the chicken.

5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet or pan lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.

6. Drizzle with Margarine: Drizzle each chicken breast with margarine or melted butter. This adds moisture and helps the coating crisp up beautifully in the oven.

7. Bake: Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown and crispy.

8. Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve hot and enjoy!

9. Optional Gravy: For an extra touch, consider serving with canned or jarred chicken gravy, as suggested in the original recipe.
