Garlic and Cheddar Chicken

Ingredients:
4 tablespoons margarine or butter
2 to 4 ounces sharp or extra sharp cheddar cheese, diced thinly or grated
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
6 to 8 Chicken thighs, skinned
2 to 3 cloves chopped garlic
3/4 cup plain or seasoned bread crumbs
cooked brown or white rice

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Saute garlic in margarine for one minute, then remove pot from flame to prevent burning. In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs and cheeses.

3. Dip chicken pieces in margarine mixture, then coat with breadcrumb mixture. Place in a baking dish (if any garlic margarine mixture is left, pour over the chicken).

4. Place in the oven and bake chicken for approximately 1 hour, then shut off the oven and let it sit in the oven for an additional 15 minutes.

5. Serve with rice or wide noodles that have been mixed with the pan drippings and bits of cheese from the bottom of the dish.

This one is a MUST try. It was easy and so tasty. The rice mixed in with the drippings is what helps make this dish too.
