The dressing for this recipe is a throwback to my mom’s go-to salad dressing when we were growing up (try the mix on any green salad, it’s amazing). On chicken, it’s creamy, savory, and delicious.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 1 (24-oz./680-g.) bag long-stem frozen broccoli

  • 6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 cup Gefen Light Mayonnaise

Directions

Prepare the Chicken

1.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.

2.

Assemble broccoli on the tray, and lay the chicken on top. Salt lightly.

3.

Mix the mayo, dressing, honey, and mustard and pour half over the chicken. (Reserve the rest for another time, or see note) Bake for one hour.

Notes:

This recipe makes enough dressing for a double recipe. It freezes super well, so throw in two trays and put one in the freezer for another night.   This spice mix is bold! If you prefer your flavors on the milder side, cut back a bit.

Yup. Open. I would cook a bit less time if using white meat.

Depends if you are using full bottoms or just drumsticks. I would start with an hour and use a meat thermometer to see if it’s done and add time in 15 minute increments till cooked to 160.

Dressing vs seasoning Can I use Italian seasoning instead of Italian dressing

I think the dressing adds the moisture. The seasoning is just a combo of herbs.

This was really a wonderful recipe. Because we didn’t have Italian dressing in the house, garlic dressing with a healthy shake of Italian seasoning was a fine substitute. It was also plenty moist without the additional mayo.

Yes, you can replace it with your favorite dressing or make a homemade Italian dressing!

We are trying to figure out what kind of chicken is it dark chicken cutlets?
Also can I bake it covered?

The dark cutlets are the thigh of the chicken – deboned. The recipe calls for skinless, but I would keep the skin on during the cooking and remove after. The skin keeps the meat from drying out.

AMAZING! By far one of my FAVORITE chicken recipes and favorite Mishpacha recipes. I’ve done it on chicken bottoms and without broccoli. The sauce is really something special. For chicken bottoms I just cook it longer, like 1.5 to 2 hours. I also make my own Italian dressing so it’s an extra step which I don’t usually do but for this recipe it’s WORTH it!!
