Ingredients
Chicken
- 3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Coating Mixture
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Southern Soul House Seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Garnish (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the chicken.
- Mix Coating: In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, Southern Soul House Seasoning, and onion powder to create the flavorful coating for the chicken.
- Prepare Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish, ensuring they are arranged without overlapping to allow even cooking.
- Apply Coating: Evenly coat each chicken breast with the mayonnaise and Parmesan mixture, covering them thoroughly.
- Bake Chicken: Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the topping is golden brown. Use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature; it should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit for safe consumption.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the chicken from the oven and, if desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving to add a touch of freshness and color.
Notes
- Ensure chicken breasts are of even thickness for uniform cooking; pounding them slightly can help.
- You can substitute Southern Soul House Seasoning with your favorite chicken seasoning blend if unavailable.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after baking to retain juices.
- Use an instant-read thermometer to avoid under or overcooking the chicken.
- Serve with a side of vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
