- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Season them lightly with additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Spread the mayonnaise mixture evenly over the tops of the chicken breasts, using a spoon or spatula.
- Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Optional: If you’d like the top to be slightly browned and crispy, you can broil the chicken for 1-2 minutes after baking. Keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
- Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh parsley if desired, then serve your “Melt in Your Mouth Chicken” hot alongside your favorite sides.
This recipe results in tender, juicy chicken with a flavorful and slightly crispy exterior thanks to the mayo and Parmesan coating. Enjoy!
