    Ingredients

    • oil spray
    • 5 oz. plain greek yogurt (I used 5% fat yogurt)
    • 2 tablespoon mayonnaise
    • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

    • In a medium bowl, mix together the greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
    • Add chicken into the bowl with yogurt mixture and coat the mixture all over the chicken.
    • Move chicken to a baking dish (or oven proof pan). Chicken should be thinly coated with the yogurt mixture. Don’t put too much or any additional mixture leftover.
    • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

      I actually found this to be a bit bland although the chicken stayed moist. Next time, I’ll have to amp up the flavors more. You could smell the garlic while it was cooking but it was very mild on the chicken. To avoid the problem others had with the chicken releasing a lot of moisture, I baked mine raised up off the pan on one of my cooling racks. Mine didn’t release much liquid at all so it probably wasn’t necessary. Without the excess moisture, I did get good color on mine.

        I am glad about the color on the chicken. Using a rack is great tip against moisture. Probably a bit more salt would improve the flavor.
