Ingredients
  

  • INGREDIENTS
  • Boneless skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)

  • COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and grease or line a 9×13 baking dish.
  • In a bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, seasoning salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  • Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, arranging them in a single layer.
  • Evenly spread the coating mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they're fully covered.
  • Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 30-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. You can use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.
  • For an extra crispy top, broil the chicken for a few minutes at the end of the cooking time, watching closely to prevent burning.
  • Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes before serving.
  • For best results, make sure to use full-fat mayonnaise for a creamier texture, and consider experimenting with different seasonings to suit your taste.
  • You can also substitute the chicken with salmon or other proteins if you're looking to mix things up.
  • Finally, always allow the chicken to rest after cooking; this helps the juices redistribute, ensuring a moist and flavorful dish.
  • Additionally, this recipe is a quick and easy chicken dinner option that can be prepared in just 10 minutes, making it ideal for busy weeknights.
  • Enjoy your melt-in-your-mouth chicken!
