Parmesan Crusted Chicken


I know it has only been a couple days since I last posted a recipe but this is so good I feel selfish not to share!  This parmesan crusted chicken took me less than five minutes to prepare which was amazing.  I love quick and easy recipes especially now that I have a cute mini man in the house who I'd rather play with than anything else.  Jake and I both love this dish.  The chicken was crispy on top and very moist and juicy on the inside.  Another great thing about this is that it only calls for four ingredients and I bet you already have all of them in your fridge and pantry.  Make this for dinner tonight.  You won't regret it.  Let's get cooking, shall we?




I just went back to the original website where I found the recipe and realized that she had green beans on the side too!  I swear I wasn't trying to copy her.

{Parmesan Crusted Chicken}
From the enchanted cook

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, about 1 1/4 lbs. total weight or about 5 ounces per breast
4 teaspoons Italian seasoned dry bread crumbs

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F

Place mayo and cheese in a small bowl and mix.

Lay chicken breasts on baking sheet (the enchanted cook lines her baking sheet with parchment paper to make clean up easy) and spread mayo mixture evenly atop each.

Next evenly sprinkle bread crumbs atop each.

Place in oven and bake for 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked thoroughly and juices run clear. Tops will be browned and chicken will be incredibly juicy. Season with a dash of fresh cracked pepper and sea salt, if desired.
