Ingredients
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (6 oz each)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper (to taste)
1 cup crushed crackers (whole wheat or saltines)
Instructions
Cook chicken breasts in boiling water 15 minutes or sauté with olive oil
Flake chicken and mix with mayonnaise, 1/4 cup Parmesan, salt, and pepper
Transfer mixture to greased 7×11-inch baking dish
Sprinkle remaining cheese over top, ensuring even distribution
Bake at 375°F (190°C) 20-25 minutes until golden and bubbly

Chicken thighs yield richer taste
Chill mixture 30 minutes pre-baking for better structure
Monitor oven temperature for consistency (use thermometer if baking often)
Room-temperature chicken prevents mayonnaise separation
