Moist Baked Cheddar-Garlic Oven Fried Chicken Breasts
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup butter melted
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic can use more or less
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder divided (garlic lovers can use more)
- 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt or can use white salt
- 3/4 cup seasoned dry bread crumb seasoned or plain
- 1/2 cup finely grated cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper or to taste
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- shredded cheddar cheese optional and use any amount desired, or can use shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Butter an 11 x 7-inch pan (if using more than 4 breasts use a larger pan).
- In a bowl, combine the melted butter with fresh minced garlic, 1 teaspoon garlic powder and salt.
- In another bowl, combine the dry breadcrumbs with 1/2 cup finely grated cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic powder and coarse ground black pepper.
- Dip the chicken in the butter mixture; then in the crumb mixture.
- Place in a prepared pan and bake uncovered for 35-45 minutes or until cooked through, larger breasts may take more time (placing the chicken on a rack in a pan will produce an extra crispy crust).
- Top with shredded cheddar or mozzarella the last 5 minutes of cooking (this is optional).
Enjoy!
