Ingredients

2 Chicken Breasts

2 Tbsp Mayonnaise

1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs

1/4 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded

1 Tbsp Smoked Paprika-Garlic Blend

Directions

1. Combine panko, cheese, and smoked paprika-garlic blend in a shallow dish.

Preheat oven to 425F.

2. Pat chicken dry with paper towel. Carefully slice into the centre of each

chicken breast lengthwise and parallel to the cutting board - leaving 1/2

inch intact on the other end. Open up chicken like a book, and season both

sides with salt and pepper.

3. Coat one side of each chicken breast with mayo. Firmly press mayo-coated side

into panko mixture to adhere, one at a time.

4. Transfer chicken to a parchment-lined baking sheet, coated-side up. Bake

chicken on the middle oven rack until cooked through (18-20 mins).
