Easy, Baked Parmesan Chicken recipe made with mayonnaise. Made with only 6 ingredients, this makes a nice and simple dinner idea.
Somehow, dinner at my house always consists of chicken. Chicken in enchiladas, chicken on pizza, chicken in the slow cooker… Chicken is my comfort zone, so this Baked Parmesan Chicken was just waiting to happen.
Maybe in the new year I will try going outside of my comfort zone and cook new types of meat. But for now, I am sticking with chicken.
I really love how easy it is to make this chicken. All you need is chicken and 5 other ingredients that I am almost certain that you have in your pantry at this very moment.
When it comes to making dinners on busy weekdays, you know I will always go for the simplest recipe that uses ingredients I already have on hand. I have already written this recipe on a piece of paper and pinned it to my fridge. I know I am going to be making this recipe a LOT in the future.
This chicken would also be a great dish to bring to a Christmas or New Year dinner party. I am one of those (maybe crazy) people who don’t like turkey. I’ll let you all have as much turkey as you want, just give me allll of the chicken!
I made this recipe with 4 very large chicken breasts, but it would also work well with 6 medium sized chicken breasts. Or chicken thighs if you want the chicken to be extra juicy!
I like to pair this chicken with salad and a baked potato, but now I am thinking about saving some of the leftovers and putting it in another dish.
To be honest, it does taste a lot better as leftovers in my opinion. It gives the flavours time to marinate the chicken, so every bite is bursting with flavour. But it you can’t wait to eat it, I don’t blame you! It’s hard to resist this chicken!
