Directions:Step 1 Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.
Step 2 Mix cheese-flavored crackers, French-fried onions, Italian bread crumbs, sesame seeds, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Set aside.
Step 3 Wash and pat chicken breasts dry. Place breasts into a bowl and add mayonnaise, mixing and coating well. Using tongs, place chicken in crumb mixture one piece at a time, cover well and pat mixture into chicken. Place chicken breasts on the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cracker mixture on top; lightly spray the chicken with cooking spray.
Step 4 Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 35 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). |

Notes: The chicken is so moist and flavorful. The more seasonings you use the better it tastes. Mayo may cause some areas to be a little mushy but it still tastes amazing!
Consider using Panko bread crumbs and add Italian seasoning instead of Italian bread crumbs. I would try placing chicken on a slightly elevated rack inside the baking dish to possibly alleviate any sogginess.
