Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Seasonings

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Other Ingredients

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C), ensuring it reaches the correct temperature to bake the chicken evenly and thoroughly.
  2. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry using paper towels to remove excess moisture; this step helps the chicken brown nicely and enhances flavor.
  3. Mix Spices: In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to create a seasoning blend that will coat the chicken.
  4. Season Chicken: Rub the prepared spice mixture evenly onto all sides of the chicken breasts, ensuring thorough coating for maximum flavor penetration.
  5. Prepare the Baking Dish: Pour the melted unsalted butter into a large baking dish, coating the bottom to keep the chicken moist and add richness during baking.
  6. Arrange Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken breasts over the melted butter in the baking dish, spacing them out slightly for even cooking.
  7. Add Parmesan: Generously sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over each chicken breast, which will form a savory crust as it bakes.
  8. Bake the Chicken: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  9. Garnish: Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes; then garnish with freshly chopped parsley to add a bright, fresh flavor and appealing presentation.
  10. Serve: Serve the Keto Garlic Parmesan Chicken immediately while warm, perfect alongside your favorite low-carb sides.

Notes

  • Ensure chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for food safety.
  • Patting chicken dry before seasoning improves browning and flavor.
  • You can substitute fresh garlic for garlic powder if you prefer a stronger garlic flavor.
  • For extra crispiness, broil the chicken for the last 1-2 minutes while watching closely to avoid burning.
  • This dish pairs well with steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad for a complete keto-friendly meal.
