Simple Chicken Mayo with Parmesan and Bread Crumbs Recipe

This chicken breast recipe with mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, and herbs is a true tried-and-tested recipe! I remember seeing an ad on TV about cooking with mayonnaise and decided to give it a shot. I've made it with just the mayonnaise on top and it really locks the moisture into the chicken. The bread crumbs and cheese are a must for me; they complement each other very well.

Directions

1. Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place chicken breasts in a baking pan.

2. Step 2

Mix Parmesan cheese and mayonnaise together in a bowl until well combined; spread evenly over chicken breasts. Coat with bread crumbs and sprinkle with herbes de Provence.

3. Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
