Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat Your Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. This ensures that the oven is at the right temperature when you’re ready to bake the chicken, resulting in a perfectly cooked dish.
2. Prepare the Creamy Mixture
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, shredded Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, minced garlic, and garlic powder. Mix until well combined. This mixture will serve as the delicious topping for your chicken breasts.
3. Prepare the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick baking spray. This prevents the chicken from sticking to the dish and makes for easy cleanup.
4. Apply the Mixture
Evenly spread the mayonnaise and Parmesan mixture over the top of each chicken breast. Make sure each piece is fully covered to ensure maximum flavor.
5. Bake the Chicken
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
6. Serve Warm
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
