This dish is one of my first originals. It has quickly become my favorite and because it is nearly impossible to mess up, is a sure winner for company. I hope that you enjoy it as much as I have. Ingredients:
1 bunch fresh basil |
1 whole bulb of garlic |
2 cups mayonnaise |
1/2 cup shredded cheese (i use a shredded mexican blend) or 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (i use a shredded mexican blend) |
salt & pepper |
6 -8 boneless skinless chicken breasts |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. Place chicken in ungreased 13x9 pan (may use a larger pan or two pans to insure a single layer of chicken).
3. Finely chop Basil & Garlic or place Basil leaves and peeled Garlic cloves in a food processor/blender/chopper and blend until finely chopped. You could also use a pre-made pesto instead.
4. Add Pesto to Mayo along with the Cheese, Salt & Pepper and mix.
5. Cover the Chicken with the Pesto sauce and bake, uncovered, for 30-45 minute.
