Ingredients
Scale
Chicken
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Coating Mixture
- 1 cup mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a healthier option)
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, parmesan cheese, seasoning salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well mixed.
- Coat the chicken. Evenly spread the mayonnaise and parmesan mixture on top of each chicken breast, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor.
- Bake the chicken. Place the coated chicken breasts into a baking dish and bake in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit and is cooked through.
- Serve. Remove the chicken from the oven and serve immediately while hot and tender.
Notes
- For a healthier alternative, substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt.
- Using a meat thermometer ensures perfectly cooked chicken and prevents dryness.
- You can add fresh herbs like parsley or basil to the coating mixture for added flavor.
- Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
- If you prefer a crispier topping, broil the chicken for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, watching closely to avoid burning.
