Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup mayonnaise or plain Greek yogurt
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), Parmesan cheese, seasoning salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until smooth.
- Coat the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a single layer in a baking dish and evenly spread the mayonnaise mixture over the top of each breast.
- Bake the Chicken: Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the topping is golden brown.
- Serve Warm: Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving warm.
Notes
- Healthier Option: Substitute mayonnaise with plain Greek yogurt to reduce fat content while keeping the chicken moist and flavorful.
- Herb Variation: Add 1 teaspoon of dried herbs like thyme, rosemary, or Italian seasoning to the mixture for extra flavor.
- Spicy Kick: Incorporate a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few dashes of hot sauce into the mixture for a spicier version.
- Cheese Alternatives: Experiment with other hard cheeses such as Pecorino Romano or Asiago for a different flavor profile.
- Low-Sodium: Use a low-sodium seasoning salt or reduce the amount of seasoning salt to suit dietary needs.
