Melt in Your Mouth Chicken
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (or your favorite herbs)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (optional for extra crunch)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish.
- Prepare Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the greased baking dish. If they are thick, you may want to pound them to an even thickness for more uniform cooking.
- Make the Coating: In a bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Coat the Chicken: Spread the mayonnaise mixture over the chicken breasts, making sure they are evenly coated. If you like a crunchy topping, sprinkle breadcrumbs over the top of the coated chicken.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). The top should be golden and slightly crispy.
- Serve: Once done, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Tips:
- Side Dishes: This chicken pairs well with roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
- Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
