Note

For a lighter version, you can use Greek yogurt instead of Miracle Whip, though the crust may not brown as deeply.

Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for food safety.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to maintain crispiness.
