Chicken Gone to Heaven

 Fell in love with this recipe for the fantastic taste and it worked great even after I had made a blunder and forgot an important step in preparing it. Try it, play with it and make it your own!

Gruyere encrusted chicken breasts cooked on a bed of escalloped potatoes and roasted green beans! Even fixed a side salad of deviled egg macaroni.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breasts, boneless/skinless (about 3)

  • ¾ cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt

  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • ½ cup grated Gruyere cheese For a stronger taste try Asiago!

  • ½ tsp seasoned salt + ½ tsp pepper

  • 1 tsp Better Than Bullion, roasted garlic flavor

  • 1 box (4.7 oz) scalloped potatoes

  • 2 cups (boiling water + half-and-half as directed)


Directions:

Place the chicken in a bowl and cover with buttermilk. Let sit covered on counter top for 30 minutes. If you don't have any buttermilk on hand, I used a can of evaporated milk and 3 TBS vinegar! Works every time.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking pan with foil and spray lightly.

Add the mayonnaise (or yogurt) to a open faced bowl and mix in the Better Than Bullion. Spoon in the blend of Parmesan and Gruyere cheeses and stir well.

Prepare the escalloped potatoes as directed on box and mix in the sprayed pan.

Coat each piece of chicken with the Cheese mixture and push into the potatoes. Dollop any remaining cheese mix on top and bake for 50 -55 minutes or until cooked through and temperature of the chicken reaches 160 degrees.

While that braises is a good time to roast the green beans along side for 25 mins. Just mix the frozen beans with a couple of TBS olive oil until coated. Spread out on foil lined baking sheet and sprinkle salt over the beans.

If you wish for a touch of color on the chicken dish, switch the oven to broiler and let the top get some browning in places. Watch this carefully so it doesn't burn.

Serve the chicken on a platter, with a side of potatoes and green beans. A fantastic dinner with only 2 pans to clean.
