Ritzy Parmesan Baked Chicken

Submitted by CookingONTheSide

"This was a hit with my family. I hope you'll enjoy it, too. You can also use light mayonnaise with success as well. I use small chicken breasts or butterfly large chicken breasts and split them in half so the chicken is not too thick to bake. I usually double the recipe then because my family always likes extra."

This was excellent! I love the flavors - the mayo, the basil, it was all great! My chicken breasts were fairly thick, so they took a little bit longer in the oven, but they turned out delicious. Thanks for posting! I will be making these again. Made for PRMR Tag.
