Melt-in-Your-Mouth Chicken

Ingredients:

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 tsp dried Italian seasoning

1/2 tsp paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup breadcrumbs (optional, for added crunch)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare the Chicken:

In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise or Greek yogurt, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Coat each chicken breast evenly with the mixture.

Optional Step (for Crunch):

If you prefer a crispy topping, sprinkle breadcrumbs over the coated chicken breasts.

Bake the Chicken:

Place the coated chicken breasts in a greased baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the top is golden brown.

Serve:

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes:

This dish pairs beautifully with a side of roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.

For extra flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice over the chicken just before serving.
