Melt In Your Mouth Chicken

Wow, is this chicken good!  This is one of those recipe I found on one of my favorite blogs, Grateful Belly.  The original recipe called for a whole cup of mayonnaise and a teaspoon of seasoned salt, but I wanted to lighten it up a bit so I cut the mayo in half and replaced the seasoned salt with a salt-free season blend since Parmesan cheese is already pretty salty.  Everyone in the family loved it - so much so that they asked for it again the next night.  This recipe is definitely a keeper!

Just 5 ingredients make up the cheesy crust.

Put them in a bowl...

Mix them together to form a paste...

...and spread it on four chicken breasts, then pop them in the oven for 35 minutes.

Delish!

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375F.

2. Wash and dry chicken and place in a greased 9x13 baking dish.
