Creamy Mayonnaise and Parmesan Chicken

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven or grill:
    • Oven: 375°F (190°C)
    • Grill: Medium-high heat
  2. Prepare the marinade:
    In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, seasoning salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well.
  3. Marinate the chicken:
    Place chicken breasts in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the mayonnaise mixture over the chicken, making sure each piece is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours for extra flavor.
  4. Cook the chicken:
    • Oven: Arrange chicken on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
    • Grill: Place chicken on the grill and cook 6–8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.
  5. Serve:
    Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Optional: sprinkle with extra Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley for added flavor and color.
