My students wanted to make a cheesy chicken dish last night that would impress their parents. This is what they all decided upon. Man, were they juicy and delicious! [the chicken breasts - not the kids] 😊

Anyway, excuse the lack of detailed pictures. They were taken but Jasmine had cranberry sauce on her lense. [don't ask] 😔 Thankfully I was able to snap a few clear shots tho.
