Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- Optional: 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning or paprika for extra flavor

- Place the chicken breasts in the baking dish.
- Spread the mayo mixture evenly over the top of each chicken breast.
