For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the brine for up to 2 hours. Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for the best flavor and texture. Adjust the amount of garlic to your personal preference. If you don't have Italian-seasoned bread crumbs, you can add a teaspoon of Italian seasoning to plain bread crumbs. Watch the chicken carefully while broiling to prevent burning.
