Preheat the Oven<\/h3>\n<p>Start by preheating your oven to <strong>400\u00b0F (200\u00b0C)<\/strong>. This ensures even cooking and helps create a golden, slightly crispy topping.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Prepare the Chicken<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Rinse the chicken breasts under cold water and pat them dry using paper towels.<\/li>\n<li>If the chicken breasts are thick, you can gently pound them to an even thickness.

Coat the Chicken<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish or on a lined baking tray.<\/li>\n<li>Spread the mixture evenly over the top of each chicken breast.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure each piece is well coated\u2014this layer will lock in moisture and form a delicious crust as it bakes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>5. Bake the Chicken<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Place the dish in the preheated oven.<\/li>\n<li>Bake for <strong>35 to 45 minutes<\/strong>, depending on the thickness of the chicken.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As it cooks, the topping will turn <strong>golden brown and slightly crispy<\/strong>, while the inside remains tender and juicy.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Optional: Broil for Extra Crispiness<\/h3>\n<p>For an extra golden and crispy top:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Turn on the broiler for the last <strong>2\u20133 minutes<\/strong> of cooking.<\/li>\n<li>Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>\u00a0Serving Suggestions<\/h2>\n<p>This dish pairs beautifully with a variety of sides.
