Mayonnaise and Parmesan Chicken
Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or 6 chicken thighs)
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Arrange the chicken in the prepared baking dish in a single layer.
Spread the mayonnaise-Parmesan mixture evenly over the top of each piece of chicken.
Bake for 25–35 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chicken, until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
For a golden, crispy topping, broil for 2–3 minutes at the end of cooking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
Serving SuggestionsPair with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, steamed rice, pasta, or a fresh green salad.
