A delightful twist on a classic baked chicken recipe, featuring a golden crust and a hint of garlic.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and position the rack to the lowest level.
Preheating ensures even cooking and a crispy crust.
Grease a baking sheet with a little butter or cooking spray.
Using parchment paper can make cleanup easier.
In a shallow dish, mix together the cornflake crumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and shredded cheddar cheese.
Ensure the cheeses are evenly distributed for a consistent coating.
In another bowl, combine the melted butter with garlic powder.
Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the garlic flavor.
Dip each chicken breast into the butter mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, then dredge it in the crumb mixture.
Press the chicken into the crumb mixture to ensure a thick coating.
Place the coated chicken breasts onto the prepared baking sheet.
Leave space between each piece for even cooking.
Sprinkle the tops of the chicken with seasoning salt and black pepper.
Adjust the seasoning to your taste preference.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and the coating is golden brown.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve the chicken hot with your favorite sides and enjoy!
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
