Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 0.5 cup Low sodium mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the low sodium mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, ground black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well until smooth and fully combined.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish. Using a spoon or brush, evenly spread the mayonnaise mixture over the top of each chicken breast. Make sure they are well-coated for maximum flavor.
Drizzle olive oil over the coated chicken breasts to help them brown nicely during baking.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Once baked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving for a pop of color and freshness.
