Ingredients for Baked Chicken Dijon

  • Breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Pepper
  • Dijon Mustard
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise

How to Make Baked Chicken Dijon

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a shallow dish, combine 1 cup bread crumbs, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup Dijon mustard and 2 tablespoons mayonnaise.
  4. Brush the Dijon-mayonnaise mixture evenly over both sides of 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total).
  5. Dredge each chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Lightly coat a wire rack with cooking spray and place it inside a shallow roasting pan.
  7. Place the breaded chicken breasts on the prepared rack.
  8. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  9. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
