Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
• 1 cup low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0 olive oil cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Spray a baking dish with olive oil cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 3

In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, low-fat cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 4

Place the chicken breasts evenly in the prepared baking dish.

Step 5

Spread the cheese and yogurt mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are thoroughly covered.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese topping is golden brown.

Step 7

Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the chicken.

Step 8

Serve hot with your choice of healthy sides like steamed vegetables or a mixed green salad.
