  5. Cook in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Recipe Tips

You can substitute light or cholesterol-free mayonnaise and omit Parmesan completely.

To save time, use thin-cut chicken breasts. Prepare as directed, but decrease bake time to about 10 minutes. Instant-read thermometer results should be the same.
