Mayonnaise usually scares me off when hunting for a new recipe.  I just have this picture in my mind of what it would be like to put a spoonful of mayonnaise in my mouth…..Yuck!  But I have been loving the recipes I have been finding at Mel’s Kitchen Cafe<\/a>, and I was in an adventurous mood, so I gave this one a try.  After all, it meets all of my criteria:  Quick, Simple, uses Ingredients I commonly find in my kitchen, and recommended by a cook I trust.<\/p>\n

Forget that mayonnaise is commonly used as a dressing and give it a try.<\/p>\n

Grilled Parmesan and Lemon Chicken<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1\/2 Cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese<\/p>\n

4 Tbl Butter, softened<\/p>\n

3 Tbl Light Mayonnaise<\/p>\n

2 Tbl Fresh Lemon Juice (from about 1 Lemon)<\/p>\n

1\/4 tsp Dried Basil<\/p>\n

1\/8 tsp Ground Black Pepper<\/p>\n

1\/4 tsp Salt<\/p>\n

1\/4 tsp Onion Powder<\/p>\n

1\/4 tsp Garlic Powder<\/p>\n

1kg Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts<\/p>\n

Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Preheat your oven grill and line the tray with foil.<\/p>\n

In a small bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, butter, mayonnaise and lemon juice.<\/p>\n

Stir in the dried basil, pepper, salt, onion powder and garlic powder. Mix well and set aside.<\/p>\n

Arrange your chicken breasts in a single layer on your grill tray and lightly season each side with salt and pepper.<\/p>\n

Grill your chicken breasts about 5cms from the grill element for 4-5 minutes before flipping them over and grilling for another 3-4 minutes until almost done.<\/p>\n

Remove your grill tray from the oven and spread equal amounts of the Parmesan mixture over each chicken breast.<\/p>\n

Grill your chicken for another 2-3 minutes until the topping is golden and bubbly and the chicken is completely cooked through.<\/p>\n

I served mine with Hasselback Potatoes<\/a> and a Tossed Green Salad.<\/p>\n
