Description

Melt in Your Mouth Chicken is a creamy, tender, and flavorful baked chicken dish made with simple ingredients and minimal prep time.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place chicken breasts in a greased baking dish.
  4. Spread the mayonnaise mixture evenly over the top of each chicken breast.
  5. Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the topping is golden brown.
  6. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Greek yogurt can be used instead of mayonnaise for a healthier option.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F internally.
