Where to find ingredients
You can find all ingredients at any local grocery store. As a substitute, butter can be used in place of margarine, and Panko breadcrumbs are an excellent alternative to standard breadcrumbs for extra crunch.
Preparation method
- Start by preparing the chicken: wash the pieces thoroughly and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Season the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, garlic, and other seasonings of your choice.
- In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise, grated onion, grated parmesan cheese, and breadcrumbs.
- Stir well until a smooth paste is formed.
- Grease a baking sheet or roasting pan with a little margarine.
- Arrange the seasoned chicken pieces in the pan side by side, without overlapping.
- Cover each piece of chicken with the prepared mayonnaise and cheese paste, spreading well to cover the entire surface.
- Distribute the margarine cubes over the topping of each chicken piece.
- This helps the crust turn golden and adds extra flavor.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 390°F for about 40 to 50 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the topping is golden and crispy.
- Baking time may vary depending on your oven and the size of the pieces.
