Baked Mayo Parmesan Chicken

  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/3 c. mayo
  • 4 T. parmesan
  • 3/4 tsp. poultry seasoning
  • 3/4 tsp. garlic powder
  • black pepper, to taste

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a baking dish just large enough to hold chicken.

Cut thick chicken pieces in half, if necessary, to make thinner pieces (or pound with a mallet). Cut shallow slits on top of each piece.

Mix mayo, cheese, and seasonings.

Put chicken pieces in baking dish and spread mayo mixture over top. (Opt.) – sprinkle more parmesan on top.

Bake 35-40 minutes, until chicken is firm and top is browned.

This recipe is adapted from one at kalynskitchen.com; there are many similar recipes out there. Some use Caesar dressing + sour cream instead of mayo. The original recipe calls for 3/4 cup mayo for 4 chicken breasts; I generally halve that for 2 large breasts.

This recipe has been quite successful for me – the chicken turns out very tender and tasty.
