Baked Parmesan Romano Chicken

I'm always looking for different ways to prepare chicken.  It's such a versatile ingredient, yet it can get boring very easily.  The red wine vinegar really gave this chicken it's boost of flavor and turned out to be very tasty!  The best part of this recipe is that it only uses 1/4 tsp. of salt and you can lower the amounts of cheeses to reduce the sodium content further without losing much flavor.
