Pollo que se deshace en la boca

Ingredientes

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz / 170 g each)
• Light cooking spray or neutral oil, for the dish
• 1 cup (225 g) full-fat mayonnaise
• 1 cup (100 g) freshly grated parmesan cheese
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp seasoned salt (such as Lawry's)
• 1/4 tsp black pepper

Preparación

1. 1

   Preheat the oven: Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray or a wipe of neutral oil.

2. 2

   Mix the topping: In a bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, parmesan, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and black pepper until smooth and evenly combined.

3. 3

   Coat the chicken: Arrange the chicken breasts in the prepared dish in a single layer. Spread the mayo-parmesan mixture in a generous, even layer over the top of each breast. Aim for about a quarter inch of thickness and do not skimp.

4. 4

   Bake until golden: Bake uncovered for 40 to 45 minutes until the topping is deeply golden and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the largest breast reads 165°F (74°C).

5. 5

   Rest and serve: Let the chicken rest in the dish for 5 minutes before slicing or serving. This keeps the juices inside the meat rather than on the cutting board.
