This mayo chicken is my favorite chicken recipe, which I learned while doing low-carb dieting. I prefer dark meat, so I use 4 legs and thighs. You can make this recipe with pork chops as well.
Ingredients
- whole chicken, cut into 6 pieces: 1 piece
- mayonnaise: 1 cup
- garlic: 2 clove (crushed)
- fresh rosemary: 1 Tbsp (finely chopped)
- salt: 1 tsp
- black pepper: (to taste, freshly ground)
- Parmesan cheese: 0.5 cup (grated)

Stages of cooking
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
Place chicken pieces into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Stir together mayonnaise, garlic, rosemary, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Spread mayonnaise mixture over chicken; top with Parmesan cheese.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
