  • Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 container (5 ounce) plain Greek Yogurt
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 375° F. Spray baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  • 2
    Combine yogurt, Parmesan cheese, and seasonings.
  • 3
    Spread over chicken breasts. Bake for 45 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and topping is browned. Serve immediately.

  • Because chicken breasts are white meat, they lack the fat needed to keep the meat moist. Adding yogurt helps add in moisture and flavor keeping the meat tender.
  • It’s important to cook chicken thoroughly to an internal temperature of at least 165° Fahrenheit. Using a meat thermometer will help ensure your chicken is cooked all the way through without over or under cooking.
  • Brining or marinating chicken beforehand is another easy way to keep chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Chicken breast is a blank canvas and tastes great with other fresh herbs and seasonings as well. Try it with chopped fresh rosemary, thyme, fresh lemon slices, paprika or onion powder.
  • Serve these chicken breasts alongside a fresh salad or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
