Baked Chicken Breast

My favorite way to bake chicken! Juicy, tender and flavorful.

Instructions

  • Take some chicken breasts, (not frozen) and pat them completely dry with a paper towel.
  • Brush on some avocado oil (or olive oil, or butter) and sprinkle with seasonings on both sides. (I used salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika).
  • Then the chicken goes into a glass baking dish, and a 450° F oven for 18-20 minutes (or slightly longer for extraordinarily thick breasts), being careful not to overbake, or until internal temperature reaches 165° F.
  • Then pull out of the oven and immediately cover with foil. Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before it is cut into, so the juices in the chicken will stay intact. 

Notes

You can use any seasoning you would like! Taco seasoning, or Italian seasoning, etc.
