This Melt in Your Mouth Chicken recipe features tender, juicy boneless skinless chicken breasts coated with a creamy, flavorful mixture of mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, and seasonings, baked to perfection for a simple yet delicious meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 4 Chicken Breasts, boneless and skinless

Coating Mixture

  • 1 cup Mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Soul Seasoning or seasoned Salt
  • ½ cup Parmesan Cheese, freshly grated

Garnish

  • Parsley for garnish, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the chicken.
  2. Prepare Baking Dish: Lightly spray the bottom of a casserole baking dish with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  3. Make Coating Mixture: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the mayonnaise, onion powder, Soul seasoning (or seasoned salt), and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Stir well to blend all ingredients thoroughly.
  4. Arrange Chicken: Place the chicken breasts flat in the prepared baking dish, ensuring they are not touching each other for even cooking.
  5. Coat Chicken: Spoon and spread the mayonnaise mixture evenly over each chicken breast, coating completely.
  6. Bake Chicken: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until the thickest part of the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  7. Garnish and Serve: Remove the chicken from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley and a little additional Parmesan cheese for garnish if desired. Serve hot immediately.

Notes

  • Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F for safe consumption.
  • Freshly grated Parmesan adds better flavor and texture compared to pre-grated.
  • Use Soul Seasoning or a good quality seasoned salt for a flavorful kick.
  • Nonstick spray helps with easy cleanup and prevents sticking.
  • Can be served with sides such as steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
