  • Cooking Instructions
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to guarantee it's hot enough to cook the chicken evenly.
  • In a large bowl, season the chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Make sure the chicken is evenly coated with the spices.
  • In a separate bowl, combine melted butter, olive oil, parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and your choice of spices. Mix well to create a flavorful sauce.
  • Place the seasoned chicken in a baking dish and pour the sauce over it, ensuring that each piece is well covered.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and is cooked through.
  • Once done, remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
  • For an extra touch, consider marinating the chicken in the spices and sauce for a couple of hours or overnight to enhance the flavors even further.
  • Additionally, feel free to customize the seasoning to your taste, and don't hesitate to add vegetables like broccoli or asparagus to the baking dish for a one-pan meal. Enjoy your delicious Baked Garlic Parmesan Chicken!
