Description

Tender and juicy Melt In Your Mouth Chicken made with creamy Parmesan coating. Easy, flavorful, and perfect for a family dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 1/2 cup milk

  • 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise or sour cream)

  • 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 3/4 teaspoon onion powder

  • 3/4 teaspoon paprika

  • Black pepper, to taste

  • Optional garnish: chopped parsley and chili flakes


Instructions

  • Slice each chicken breast into two strips (or three strips if the pieces are large). Place the chicken strips in a bowl and cover with milk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight for best results.

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F.

  • In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, half of the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper.

  • Transfer the chicken strips to a 9×13-inch baking dish and season lightly with salt. Spread the yogurt mixture evenly over the chicken pieces.

  • Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top, then add a little extra paprika for color.

  • Bake uncovered for 40 minutes. Then switch the oven to broil and cook for a few minutes until the top is golden and slightly browned. Watch carefully to prevent burning.

 

  • Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley and chili flakes if desired before serving.
