Parmesan Crusted Chicken Breasts

We have a local grocery store that has give aways if you spend $20.00 or more.  One week, they offered their Parmesan crusted chicken breasts.  Naturally, I took home the free chicken & it was delicious!  I asked them today how to make it & I duplicated it at home for dinner.

My dear hubby has been undergoing chemo for almost a year now & the week after chemo, he loves to eat pasta.  When I saw this recipe for Fresh Tomato Pasta with Herbed Breadcrumbs "Montreal" at Savoring Time in the Kitchen, I knew I would make it for him.   I left off the breadcrumbs, but the pasta with fresh tomatoes was amazing!

Here's the recipe for the chicken:

I had 3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (Free!!) that I slathered with about 1/3 cup lite mayonnaise that had a few drops of hot sauce & 1 T. minced green onion (the grocery store used chives, but I didn't have any).

Next, you sprinkle some dry Parmesan cheese on each side along with freshly grated Parmesan.  That's it!!!!

Now, put in a greased baking dish & into a preheated 375 degree oven.  Bake for about 30 minutes or until no longer pink inside. 

The chicken is so moist & delicious.  I hope you try this easy recipe along with the wonderful pasta dish.  What a perfect, Summer meal!

NOTE:  For those who don't like mayo, try slathering butter on the chicken  instead!

I am sharing this with Full Plate Thursday at Miz Helen's & Foodie Friday at Designs by Gollum.

  4. Kitty, Thank you for visiting my blog and I think you will really like the Shrimp and Grits when you try it. I am making a copy of your Chicken dish as well, it looks and sounds amazing. Haven't had a chance to try the pasta dish but I saw it at Savoring Time in the Kitchen last week too and thought I needed to try it as well.
