BAKED GARLIC PARMESAN CHICKEN

Recipe and photo: Amanda Conradie
I really am so tired of cooking for myself… this 🔐 down have to end now. This is another quick, easy recipe to try.

• ½ cup mayonnaise
• ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• 4 boneless skinless chicken breast cutlets
• 4 – 5 teaspoons Italian-seasoned dry bread crumbs
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• pinch of salt
• ½ teaspoon lemon pepper
• Preheat oven to 200ºC.
• In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, garlic powder and Parmesan cheese.
• Moisten chicken breasts with water and lay on baking sheet.
• Divide the mayonnaise mixture evenly over 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.
• Serve with a veggie or deliciously fresh Greek pasta salad like I did.
• You can season with a dash of fresh parsley, if desired.
