FB Recipe Tried "Cheddar and Garlic Oven Fried Chicken"

I followed this recipe exactly.  It came out looking like the picture and tasted great!

 

I wasn't sure about the amount of garlic butter for dipping in, but it was perfect with no left over.

 

 

Cheddar and Garlic Oven "Fried" Chicken

1/4 cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons minced garlic ( can use more or less)
2 teaspoons garlic powder, divided ( garlic lovers can use more)
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt ( or can use white salt)
3/4 cup seasoned dry bread crumb ( seasoned or plain)
1/2 cup finely grated low fat cheddar cheese
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese...
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper ( or to taste)
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
shredded cheddar cheese ( optional and use any amount desired, or can use shredded mozzarella cheese)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Butter an 11 x 7-inch pan (if using more than 4 breasts use a larger pan).
In a bowl, combine melted butter with fresh minced garlic, 1 teaspoon garlic powder and salt.
In another bowl, combine the dry breadcrumbs with 1/2 cup finely grated cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese 1 teaspoon garlic powder and coarse ground black pepper.
Dip chicken in butter mixture; then in crumb mixture.
Place in prepared pan and bake uncovered for 35-45 minutes or until cooked through, larger breasts may take more time (placing the chicken on a rack in a pan will produce an extra crispy crust).
Top with shredded cheddar or mozzarella the last 5 minutes of cooking (this is only optional.
