CHICKEN BREAST MAYO PARMESAN CHEESE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C)
• Wash chicken breast under cold running water and pat dry with a paper towel. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• In a medium-sized bowl, use your hands to cover the chicken breasts with mayonnaise. Make sure the chicken is fully covered in mayo in a nice even layer.
• Lightly grease a baking dish with some oil and place the chicken breasts into it. Sprinkle equal amounts of shredded parmesan cheese onto each chicken breast.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 40-45 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the parmesan cheese has turned golden brown. (If you have a meat thermometer it should read 165°F at the thickest part of the chicken to make sure it's fully cooked and safe to eat)

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Place chicken breasts between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/2-inch. Season chicken thoroughly with salt and pepper.
• Beat eggs in a shallow bowl and set aside.
• Mix bread crumbs and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese in a separate bowl, set aside.
• Place flour in a sifter or strainer; sprinkle over chicken breasts, evenly coating both sides.
• Dip flour coated chicken breast in beaten eggs. Transfer breast to breadcrumb mixture, pressing the crumbs into both sides. Repeat for each breast. Set aside breaded chicken breasts for about 15 minutes.
• Heat 1 cup olive oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer. Cook chicken until golden, about 2 minutes on each side. The chicken will finish cooking in the oven.
• Place chicken in a baking dish and top each breast with about 1/3 cup of tomato sauce. Layer each chicken breast with equal amounts of mozzarella cheese, fresh basil, and provolone cheese. Sprinkle 1 to 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese on top and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is browned and bubbly, and chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
