Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast cutlets.
  • 4-5 teaspoons Italian seasoned dry bread crumbs
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl combine mayo, garlic powder, and parmesan cheese.
  • Moisten chicken breasts with water and lay on baking sheet (I line my baking sheet with parchment paper to make clean up easy)
  • Divide the mayonnaise mixture evenly among the chicken, just spreading it across the top of each piece, and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, remove from oven and sprinkle bread crumbs on each piece of chicken.
  • Return to oven and bake for additional 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked thoroughly and juices run clear.
  • Tops will be browned and chicken will be incredibly juicy.
  • You can also finish them off under the broiler for a minute or two to get them extra browned on top.
  • Serve with a veggie like these delicious fresh broccoli that I steamed.
  • Season with a dash of fresh parsley, if desired.
