Parmesan Crusted Chicken
Tina Radcliffe
This is one of those recipes that I keep
meaning to try and never do. When I did get around to it, I was shocked at how
easy, fast and delicious it is. I’ve made it three times since October.
Ingredients:
½ cup mayonnaise (8 tablespoons)
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (4 tablespoons)
4 teaspoons Italian seasoned dry bread crumbs
2 large chicken breasts or equal amount of
tenders, or 4 breast halves
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Combine mayo and cheese in bowl. DO NOT ADD
BREAD CRUMBS!
Pat chicken dry with paper towel. Very important.
Arrange chicken on baking sheet or dish. (I
used a glass dish with a light coating of olive oil)
Evenly top with mayo mixture.
Sprinkle with bread crumbs. DO NOT ADD EXTRA
SALT!
Bake until thoroughly cooked (do not turn
them over) –approximately 20 minutes.
Voila!
And for dessert…a cup of coffee or tea and a great holiday book!

That looks delish, a nice change from the same old recipes,so I'm going to try this.
ReplyDeleteIt's now one of our favorites, Tracey!!
ReplyDeleteOne of my daughters gave me this recipe (or a very similar one... I don't think hers said the breadcrumbs should be seasoned), raving that it's become one of their favourites, too. I'm determined to try this version next time we have chicken. It sounds very tasty. And 'easy' is welcome during this busy holiday season.
ReplyDeleteLOL -- I'll skip the chicken dish and go straight to the dessert. I'm reading Hope for the Holidays Historical Collection right now. :-)
ReplyDeleteKav, I can't wait to read it! I'm reading the contemporary now. :)
DeleteYou could use this on zucchini, Kav.
ReplyDeleteOoooooooh, now there's an idea. I never think of eating zucchini like a vegetable. I'm always grated it up and making bread and chocolate cake. This would make a yummy addition to Christmas dinner.
DeleteOr eggplant! :)
DeleteTry it, Carol. It's delish!
ReplyDeleteI've loved this recipe! I've made it several times. It's delicious and quick!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I didn't have seasoned bread crumbs so just used plain and sprinkled on Italian seasoning.
DeleteLooks yummy AND easy--my top two criteria for any recipe! (Because I'm pushing all the cooking over to hubby, and this looks like something he could handle!)
ReplyDeleteOh my stars, look at the crowd you've gathered here, Radcliffe!!!!! Your sparkling personality... or the veiled threats!!!! ..... :) Have accomplished a great goal! First, I'm dying to try this because it looks marvelous and I'm starving and if I go downstairs to eat something, the little kids will TRAP ME. So I'm starving alone but there are 6 bags of chocolate for the holidays up here with me. I MIGHT EAT ONE OR ALL!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI might just eat the screen. It looks that good.
ReplyDeleteShare the chocolate. No hogging.
ReplyDeleteYou husband does all the cooking? What am I doing wrong?
ReplyDeleteLOL, Tina. Mine is kitchen-challenged. I'm talking REALLY smart man who is clueless when it comes to cooking. :)
DeleteI love this recipe! I make it all the time. It's delicious and easy.
ReplyDeleteThere you go. The Cara Lynn James seal of approval.
ReplyDeleteI'm a little stunned that a household can survive without Italian bread crumbs. Seriously.
ReplyDeleteIt's really that easy? Really?? I am so baking this. You don't happen to have a quick and easy risoto recipe, do you?
ReplyDeleteNancy C
Oh, my goodness, Tina! This looks delicious!!! I'm so saving this recipe and trying it! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeletelooks yummy!
ReplyDeleteSusanna
No, Nancy. I need a quick and easy risoto recipe too.
