A simple name for a simple yet scrumptious meal! Mayo Chicken drapes chicken with a tangy, aromatic mayo sauce topping and roasts it into tender, savory perfection. The mayo not only provides the chicken with a delectable, herbaceous flavor, but it also locks in moisture so the chicken is juicier than ever. Throw in some nutty, melty parmesan, and Mayo Chicken becomes a home-cooking hero; people will be crowding around the table to make sure they get their fill. Sometimes it takes something simple to be spectacular!
