Ingredients

2 pounds chicken breast boneless (See notes for preparation)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
½ cup Parmesan cheese grated
4 tablespoons butter softened
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tablespoons green onion chopped
¼ teaspoon salt
Freshly grated black pepper to taste
Dash of Tabasco Sauce

Garnish

Additional sliced green onions

Instructions

Place fillets in a buttered baking dish in a single layer. Brush both sides with lemon juice and let stand for 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, butter, mayonnaise, green onion, salt, pepper, and Tabasco sauce.
Broil the fillets 3/4 inches under a pre-heated broiler for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven, flip fillets over and spread the top with the cheese mixture. Broil for an additional 2-4 minutes until just turning brown. WATCH CAREFULLY!
A food thermometer should read 165 degrees internal temperature to insure the chicken is done.
Serve over rice if desired and garnish with sliced green onions.

Notes

Chicken breasts will require that you make them thinner for this preparation. You have two options:

Cut the breasts horizontally into two pieces (a bit harder but my preference)
Cut the breast in half and pound each peace to a thickness relative to a piece of fish; approximately 1/2" thick. Do not pound too thin!
