Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray

In a shallow dish, combine stuffing crumbs and Italian dressing mix; set aside.

Place eggs in a large bowl; add chicken and coat well. Roll chicken in crumb mixture, one piece at a time, and coat thoroughly.

Place chicken in prepared baking pan and bake 1 hour, or until chicken is fork-tender and no pink remains.
