Families love this recipe. Expect adults to eat two chicken bundles and kids to eat one when served with additional sides. For the ultimate comfort food experience, serve with mashed potatoes and gravy and top the chicken bundles with gravy too.  

Leftovers are good heated up or served cold. It makes a delicious chicken salad type sandwich and easy to pack for lunch or picnics.

You can use curly or flat leaf parsley or even cilantro. In a pinch, you can used dried parsley flakes too. Use any flavor seasoned bread crumbs you would like or crush snack crackers instead.
