Ingredients

  • 4 boneless + skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt or mayo or sour cream

  • Slice each chicken breasts into two strips (3 strips if they are big pieces). Place them in a bowl and cover them with the milk. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight (covered and in your fridge).
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F.
  • In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, half the grated parmesan and the spices (salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika and pepper to taste). Transfer your chicken pieces to a 9x13" baking dish.
