Chicken breasts in the oven with mayonnaise

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to bake juicy chicken breasts in the oven with mayonnaise? First, prepare the necessary ingredients. For this dish, you can take chicken fillet without skin and bones, or use whole chicken breasts with skin. They can be left whole or cut in half lengthwise. But keep in mind that the weight of the breasts with a bone will be more than just a fillet, so calculate the number of servings not by the weight of the chicken, but by the number of breast halves (1 half - 1 serving).

2. Step 2:

   

   Wash the chicken fillet, dry it with paper towels.

3. Step 3:

   

   Cut a whole head of garlic lengthwise into two halves.

4. Step 4:

   

   Peel the two remaining garlic cloves and pass them through a press or grate them on a fine grater.

6. Step 5:

   

   Add chicken spices, curry, ground black pepper, salt and crushed garlic to the mayonnaise. Mix everything well. When using a ready-made mixture of spices for chicken, be sure to read the composition on the package. Often, salt and pepper are already present in such mixtures, take this into account, otherwise you risk over-salting and peppering the dish.

7. Step 6:

   

   Coat the chicken breasts with the resulting mayonnaise sauce on all sides and leave to marinate for 1 hour at room temperature. If you plan to marinate the meat longer, put it in the refrigerator.

8. Step 7:

   

   Put the chicken in mayonnaise in a greased baking dish. Brush the top with the remaining sauce in the bowl. Put the cut garlic head next to it. Place the chicken breasts in a preheated 180 ° C oven and bake for 40-45 minutes. If you have meat with a bone, then it may take a little more time. Be guided by the time of your oven. If the meat starts to burn, but is not ready yet, cover the mold with foil.
