Expert Tips

Brushing mayonnaise over the chicken produces a crisp, golden brown skin. However, using reduced-fat or fat-free mayonnaise won't work.

Want to grill? You can make this recipe on the grill, too. Place the chicken, skin sides up, on the grill, and brush with half of the mayo mixture. Cover and grill 5 to 6 inches from medium heat 35 to 55 minutes, turning and brushing with remaining mayo mixture.

Very tasty, easy, inexpensive week night recipe. Had a package of 4 large leg and thigh combo chicken and wanted to do more than just bake it. Thought I would try this since I use Italian dressing to make chicken kabobs on the grill. I had 1, hubby ate the other 3. He really liked it. The only changes I made was to add salt and pepper to the chicken before I put the dressing on. Added some crushed, dried thyme to the mix and used Mircle Whip in place of mayo. Very moist and tasty. Will make again.

This was very good It is a definite keeper. I used Miracle Whip. It added a nice moistness. I served this with Noodles Alfredo and an Italian vegetable blend. It was an enjoyable meal.
