I found this recipe online, and while it isn't the healthiest dish, it's super tasty! I cut the recipe in half and use three breasts, and there is still plenty to cover the chicken. It takes longer to preheat the oven than it does to prepare the topping, so it's a great weeknight meal. I pair it with orzo rice from Trader Joe's and whatever vegetable we have. I tried to make it healthier once by substituting the mayo for greek yogurt. It's still tasty, but it's a totally different taste, and it doesn't brown at all, so there isn't much crunch. Trip will eat one breast, I'll eat half, and I use the other breast and a half for chicken salad sandwiches for lunch the next day.
INGREDIENTS:
- 3 chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise (or greek yogurt, if you're feeling healthy)
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- panko bread crumbs (optional)
Preheat over to 375 degrees.
Combine mayo, cheese, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and pepper in bowl and mix thoroughly.
Place chicken breasts in 13 x 9 baking dish (pat dry).
Using spoon, scoop mixture out and cover the breast tops and sides, til all visible parts are covered with the mixture.
Sprinkle some bread crumbs on top for a nice crunch.
Bake in oven for about 40-45 minutes (depending on how thick the breasts are).
