Ingredients
- 1/3 cup Hiland Butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Minced Garlic (can use more or less to your taste)
- 2 teaspoons Garlic Powder, divided (garlic lovers can use more)
- 1/2 teaspoon Seasoning Salt (or you can use White Salt)
- 3/4 cup Dry Bread Crumbs (Seasoned or Plain)
- 1/2 cup Finely Grated Hiland Cheddar Cheese
- 1/4 cup Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon Coarse Ground Black Pepper (or to taste)
- 4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Butter an 11 x 7-inch baking dish (if using more than 4 breasts use a larger pan).
- In a bowl, combine 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 Hiland Cheddar Cheese, Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon garlic powder and coarse ground black pepper.
- Dip chicken in butter mixture; then in crumb mixture.
- Place in 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 Hiland Cheddar or Mozzarella the last 5 minutes of cooking (optional).
