Melt in Your Mouth Chicken Recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place them in a baking dish.
3. Make the sauce: In a bowl, mix the mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, seasoning salt, pepper, and paprika until well combined.
4. Coat the chicken: Spread the mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, covering them completely. If desired, sprinkle breadcrumbs on top for a crispy crust.
5. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the top is golden brown.
6. Rest and serve: Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps keep it juicy.

Tips:

• For extra flavor, add herbs like parsley, thyme, or rosemary to the sauce.
• If the chicken breasts are thick, you can pound them to an even thickness for more even cooking.
• Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
