Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup mayonnaise (or plain Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Directions:
- Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish. - Prepare the Topping:
In a bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth. - Arrange the Chicken:
Place the chicken breasts in the greased baking dish. - Spread the Mixture:
Evenly coat the tops of the chicken breasts with the mayo-Parmesan mixture. - Bake:
Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the topping is golden and bubbly. - Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired. Serve with rice, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
Tips:
- For extra flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice to the topping.
- Use thin-sliced chicken breasts to speed up cooking time.
- Broil for the last 2 minutes for a more golden top.
