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."  Psalm 27

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 to end.  You have 45 minutes each week to impact that little life.  Make e
