A creamy and savory chicken dish that's easy to prepare, perfect for busy weeknights or family dinners.
Ingredients
For the Chicken
- 4 pieces Chicken Breasts (6-8 ounces each, boneless and skinless)
For the Sauce
- 1/2 cup Mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter twist) Greek yogurt can be used as a healthier substitute.
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese (freshly grated) Can substitute with Pecorino Romano or Italian blend.
- 1 tablespoon Dry Minced Onion
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 tablespoon Dried Parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt Adjust to taste.
- 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper Adjust to taste.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), Parmesan cheese, dry minced onion, garlic powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
Coating and Baking
- Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish. Spread the sauce mixture evenly over the top of each piece.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- For a golden, crispy topping, broil the chicken for an additional 2-3 minutes after baking, watching carefully to avoid burning.
Notes
Use a meat thermometer for perfect cooking. Customize seasoning and add fresh herbs for enhanced flavor.
