Cheddar and Cracker Chicken

I found this recipe on Pinterest from What's Cookin, Chicago? Kye and I made it while Zach was out of town and LOVED it. I'm excited to have it re-heated once Blitzen arrives!

Ingredients:
  1. 16 buttery crackers (Ritz), crushed (about 3/4 cup)
  2. 6 ounces sharp cheddar, graded (I used shredded cheddar that I had and stuck it in the food processor to grind it up)
  3. 1 clove garlic, finely chopped (again, used my mini food processor)
  4. 1-2 stalks scallions, thinly sliced (I didn't use this at all)
  5. salt and black pepper
  6. 4 6-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  7. 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Directions:
  1. Heat oven to 350
  2. In a bowl combine crackers, cheese, garlic, scallions and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper
  3. Pound chicken to about 1/4-1/2 inch thickness with a meat mallet. 
  4. Dip pounded chicken in the butter then in the cracker mixture. Press gently to help it adhere and place on a foil-lined baking sheet
  5. Sprinkle any remaining cracker mixture onto the chicken and drizzle with any remaining butter. Bake until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (15-20 min)
Freezer Version:

Prepare chicken as directed above. After coating it in the cracker mixture, place chicken in a gallon sized freezer bag, seal and freeze flat in the freezer. When ready to prepare, place onto a baking sheet and drizzle with melted butter. Bake as directed from frozen until cooked through, possibly 30-35 minutes depending on thickness

I rarely drop remarks, however after looking at through a few of the responses here "Cheddar and Cracker Chicken".

I actually do have 2 questions for you if you do not mind.
Could it be just me or do some of these comments come
across like they are written by brain dead people? :-P And,
if you are posting at other sites, I'd like to follow everything new you have to post. Would you post a list of the complete urls of all your shared sites like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?

Unquestionably consider that that you stated.
Your favourite justification appeared to be on the net the
easiest thing to have in mind of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed even as
other folks consider issues that they plainly do
not recognise about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as neatly as outlined out the whole thing
without having side effect , people can take a signal.

Will probably be again to get more. Thanks
