Here is a copycat recipe for the chicken Lombardy from the olive garden! This recipe consists of breaded chicken that is topped with cheese, alfredo sauce, bacon, and parsley. The chicken is first breaded and then fried in the pan until golden brown. The chicken is then baked in the oven to finish cooking and topped with smoked mozzarella and provolone cheese. The breading of the chicken requires a little bit of work but other than that this recipe is easy to prepare. I like to serve this dish over linguini. Enjoy.
