Creamy Lemon Chicken Bake Directions:
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
• Pat chicken dry. If thicker than 1 inch, slice horizontally for even thickness. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken 2–3 minutes per side until lightly golden. Transfer to baking dish in a single layer.
• In a bowl, whisk evaporated milk, chicken broth, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan until smooth.
• Pour mixture evenly over chicken. Dot butter pieces over the top. Add lemon slices if using.
• Bake uncovered for 22–25 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 165°F and sauce is bubbling.
• Rest 5 minutes before serving. Spoon approximately 1/3 cup sauce over each chicken breast. Garnish with parsley if desired.
