Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, trimmed of excess fat
  • 1 cup mayonnaise or Greek yogurt for a healthier option
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese or sharp Cheddar, or Asiago, divided
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Prepare the Topping: In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), ½ cup of the parmesan cheese, seasoning salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir until well combined.
  • Assemble the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish in a single layer. Spread the creamy mixture evenly over the top of each chicken breast, ensuring they are fully coated.
  • Add the Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of parmesan cheese over the top of the coated chicken.
  • Bake: Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F) and the top is golden and bubbly.
  • Optional Broil: For an extra-crispy topping, switch the oven to broil for the last 2–3 minutes of cooking.
  • Serve: Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Pair with roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or a side of rice or pasta for a complete meal.
