Categories     Main Course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2.5 pounds chicken tenderloins
3/4 cup mayo
3/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Combine the mayo, 1/4 cup of the cheese, garlic, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the chicken and stir to coat. Put the chicken on a large baking sheet. I put parchment on mine to save on the cleanup.
  • Sprinkle on the rest of the cheese.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. It should read 160 on a meat thermometer. I try to take it out at about 158 and let it rest for a few minutes.
  • Optional: Broil for 2-3 minutes to brown the cheese. Watch the chicken closely if you are broiling so it doesn't burn.

  • Make sure the chicken tenders are completely coated in the sauce before baking. This will help to ensure that they are evenly flavored and coated.
