Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika (if using), and Italian seasoning. Season with salt and pepper.
Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then place them in the baking dish.
Spread the mayonnaise mixture evenly over the top and sides of the chicken.
Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the sauce is golden brown.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with parsley or chives, if desired, and serve.
