Description
This ridiculously simple recipe transforms chicken breasts with a mayonnaise and Parmesan coating, creating a tender, flavorful dish that’s perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- 1 cup mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter version)
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- ½ teaspoon seasoning salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), Parmesan cheese, seasoning salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir until everything is well blended.
- Place chicken breasts in a lightly greased baking dish. Spread the mayonnaise mixture evenly over the chicken breasts to coat.
- Bake uncovered for 45 minutes, or until golden brown and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Let the chicken rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.
Notes
A light, even coating is ideal. You can substitute Greek yogurt for mayonnaise for a lighter version. Adjust baking time based on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
