Recipe: Parmesan Crusted Chicken

Parmesan Crusted Chicken

I tried this recipe for a dinner that I hosted.  Yummy!  An easy recipe for a group and will impress your guests. :)



INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 1-1/4 lbs.)
4 tsp. Italian seasoned dry bread crumbs

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 425°.
Combine mayonnaise with cheese in medium bowl. Coat each piece with the mayo/cheese.  Coat in the bread crumbs.
Bake until chicken is thoroughly cooked, about 20 minutes.

Tips:


*I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs instead of the breast halves.  They are a perfect size for company - especially for children or small eaters.  Make sure to make at least two for adults.  Many of the adults at my meal at two thighs.  I had 13 people at our dinner, I made two packages which I believe were around 12-13 thighs in a package.  We had some leftover but that is good!  I never want to run out of anything I serve - that way I know guests feel comfortable to eat all they want and get their fill without feeling like they are eating the last of the food.  Always make more than you need! :)

*Plan on cooking time to be longer than the recipe.  I cooked mine at a lower temperature for at least an hour!  You want to make sure they are cooked through and crispy on the outside to serve.  Especially when you are having guests - start earlier than you think you need.


*I used cookie sheets covered with foil.  Use this tip for easy clean-up or you will regret it later! LOL!

*I served this chicken with crockpot mac and cheese (so creamy and yummy!!), corn on the cob (I used fresh corn and snapped them in half - this is better to serve - people can take two or three or just the one if they want!) and watermelon.

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."...

Ten Tips for Sunday School Teachers

Ideas for Sunday School Teachers: 1.  Write a note to each student and mail it to their home. 2.  Visit the child in his home and bring a small treat. 3.  Make a special treat once a month for your students on Sunday. 4.  Have a Sunday School class activity on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. 5.  Pray for your students. 6.  Have a monthly or quarterly contest for your students.  Include bringing their Bible, saying memory verses, attendance, etc.  Award small prizes. 7.  Have a special craft once a month. 8.  Rev up your teaching time!  Use props such as costumes, pictures, videos.  Make your lesson time come alive.  Teach your lesson 2-3 times during the week out loud – you will be amazed at how you will be able to teach it to your students – not just following the words in the book. 9.  After the lesson, be creative!  Students should not just be sitting and waiting for Sunday School hour ...
