- Bake in a preheated 375-degree F oven for about 20 to 25 minutes or until chicken breasts are cooked through.
- Sprinkle with the cheese and cook until cheese has melted and is beginning to brown. (For some spice, sprinkle the tops of the chicken with crushed red pepper flakes.) Store any leftover chicken in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat in the microwave.
