Ingredients

2 cups crushed saltine crackers
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
½ cup margarine, melted

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease a large baking dish.
Mix together crushed crackers, seasoned salt, and garlic powder in a shallow bowl.
Dip chicken breasts into melted margarine, then press into cracker mixture until coated. Arrange chicken in the prepared baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven until chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 45 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
