Cooking Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly.
  • Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine crushed Ritz crackers, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • In another bowl, mix together mayonnaise and Dijon mustard until smooth.
  • Dip each chicken breast into the mayonnaise mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated. Then, press the coated chicken into the Ritz cracker mixture.
  • Arrange the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
  • Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  • Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired before serving.
