Melt in Your Mouth Chicken

It goes together quickly, I’ve doubled and tripled the recipe for crowds.  Use a 9×13 baking pan or 2 or 3, and bake.  The hardest part is prepping the chicken, I like to make sure to remove any gristle or fat, (so it really does melt in your mouth),  then wash and dry them.  Place them in the pan, add the rest,  It’s a snap!

Melt In Your Mouth Chicken
 
Moist delicious chicken we like to serve with baked potatoes or on a bed of rice. A big plus for our family, it's gluten-free and low-carb, and everyone loves it!
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 4 boneless chicken breast halves, (rinsed and patted dry)
  • 1 cup mayonnaise (I like Best Foods Olive Oil Mayo)
  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ teaspoon seasoning salt, (I use Lawry's and cut the amount by half)
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
  1. Mix mayonnaise, cheese and seasonings.
  2. Place chicken in baking dish and spread mixture over the chicken evenly.
  3. Bake at 325 for 1-1/2 hours uncovered.
Notes
I like to use chicken breast, but chicken thighs and drumsticks work well too.
Nutrition Information
Serving size: 1 chicken breast

We served it with fabulous Idaho baked potatoes, glazed carrots, green salad, rolls, and brownie sundaes.  Talk about easy, Sunday dinner perfection.  Trust me, we will be making this again often!

With love from our table to yours…

    Yum, yum, yum – I’m always up for a new chicken recipe! I seem to never tire of it because there are so many fun variations and this one looks fabulous! I am actually posting a chicken breast recipe today also, I guess we’re just two peas in a pod today! 🙂

    I can never have too many chicken recipes. I’ve never tried mayonnaise on chicken, but it must be part of what makes it so moist and tender.

    That looks so good! The mayo part seems unusual, but then again………..yum.

    This sounds so much like a recipe my family loves that I’ve made for years but it’s made with Miracle Whip and seasonings, and then grilled. I love the sound of this one with the cheese! I haven’t tried the Best Foods (Hellman’s here) mayo with olive oil yet – sounds good.

    Hi Renee, hope all is going well in your new role with the missionary group. I’m vegetarian so don’t eat chicken, but I just saw your banana sheet cake recipe and it sounds divine. Best wishes and blessings, Tammy

    So here’s a really dumb question. Can you taste the mayonnaise? I’m guessing you can’t but I’m asking because I HATE the taste of mayonnaise. I don’t mind using it as long as I can’t taste it. So . . . ?
