Italian Parmesan Crusted Chicken Fillets
This delicious chicken dish can be made in just a few minutes and takes less than 30 minutes to bake. Served with a side of vegetables makes for a healthy delicious meal. Shown here with Parmesan Zucchini.
3 chicken breasts (about 5 oz. breasts) (Picture only shows 4 – but there is plenty of topping for 6 fillets.)
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Cut each chicken breast in half the long way. This will give you 6 fillets.
Lay chicken fillets in a shallow casserole pan. I lined the pan with parchment paper for easy clean up.
1/2 cup low fat mayonnaise
1/4 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp. garlic granules
pepper (to taste)
Mix mayo, parmesan cheese, garlic granules and pepper.
Spread mixture evenly over each chicken fillet.
4 tsp. italian bread crumbs
Sprinkle italian bread crumbs over all.
Bake for 20 minutes in 425 degrees oven.
Move chicken to the upper rack and broil for a few minutes to make a nicely browned crust.
WEIGHT WATCHERS: 3.5 PointsPlus per fillet (if using Low Fat Mayo) If you use any other type of mayo, figure the points accordingly.
