Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup mayonnaise (or plain Greek yogurt)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Fresh chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the mayonnaise (or yogurt), Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Arrange the chicken breasts in the greased baking dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
- Generously spread the creamy mixture over each chicken breast, coating them thoroughly.
- Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the topping is golden and bubbly.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and garnish with fresh parsley before serving hot.
Notes
For the best results, ensure chicken breasts are of even thickness. Broiling for the last 2-3 minutes can add an extra crunch.
