  • 1 teaspoon instant chicken bouillon (optional)
  • 1 or 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

Position a rack in the center of your oven and preheat it to 400ºF (200°C). This ensures even cooking and perfectly baked chicken.

Pour this delectable mixture over the seasoned chicken cutlets in the baking dish. Reserve some sauce for serving later if you like.

Step 4: Bake to Perfection

Bake the chicken for 15-20 minutes. The cooking time may vary depending on your oven. Check that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165˚F (75°C) to ensure it’s fully cooked.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Serve your Garlic Parmesan Chicken immediately. It’s perfect with a side of cauliflower rice or baked veggies. Don’t forget to use the remaining sauce for dipping!
