A great Italian dish is always something to look forward to after a long day of work, and this one delivers. Fast and easy for those running short on time and still much healthier than a fast food alternative.
The only thing I would suggest on this recipe is to make sure you think about the thickness of the chicken. My chicken breast tend to run a little large than store bought so you may need to either half them or split them like I did to get them too cook through within the time limit.
