Ingredients

2 cups crushed saltine crackers
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
0.5 cup margarine, melted

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Prepare a baking dish by greasing it lightly.
In a shallow dish, combine crushed crackers with seasoned salt and garlic powder. Mix well to ensure even flavor distribution.
Dip each chicken breast into melted margarine, then press into the cracker mixture, ensuring complete coverage. Arrange the coated chicken pieces in the prepared baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Use an instant-read thermometer for accurate results; juices should run clear when pierced.
Serve immediately and savor the crispy, flavorful baked chicken!
