\"Easy<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It may not seem like it, but a good baked chicken recipe is a gift. It\u2019s easy, reliable, and it saves you time and energy. There\u2019s no standing at the stove, wondering if your seared chicken is browned enough or cooked all the way through, no time-consuming marinades or messy breading to do. You simply combine chicken breasts and 5 straightforward ingredients in a dish and bake. That\u2019s it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boneless skinless chicken breasts
Seasoned panko breadcrumbs
Parmesan cheese
Garlic powder
Mayonnaise
Basil<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For flavor and texture, these baked chicken breasts are topped with a thin, creamy layer of mayonnaise infused with fresh basil and a light coating of crispy, garlic Parmesan breadcrumbs. The mayo provides richness and seals in the chicken\u2019s moisture without lending much flavor (the fresh basil is there for that, after all) so if you\u2019re not much of a mayo fan, don\u2019t worry. It also acts as the perfect surface for the crispy crumbs to adhere to.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bake at 425 for about 20 minutes, until the topping is crispy and golden brown. Serve with lemon wedges.
