Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Make the Topping
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, minced garlic, and garlic powder until smooth and well combined.
Step 2: Prepare the Chicken
Lightly grease a baking dish. Arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer.
Step 3: Add the Creamy Topping
Spoon the mayonnaise mixture evenly over each chicken breast, spreading it gently to fully cover the tops.
Step 4: Bake
Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
For a lightly golden top, broil for 2–3 minutes at the end if desired.
Step 5: Serve
Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with parsley if desired.
