Description

Tender and flavorful Garlic Boneless Baked Chicken Breast recipe that’s easy to make and perfect for a quick weeknight dinner. The chicken is seasoned with garlic, herbs, and lemon juice, then baked to juicy perfection.


Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Chopped parsley for garnish


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. Prepare the chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels.
  3. Mix the seasoning: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, thyme, and lemon juice.
  4. Season the chicken: Rub the mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
  5. Bake: Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish in a single layer. Bake for 22–26 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  6. Broil: Broil for the last 2–3 minutes for a golden finish, if desired.
  7. Rest and serve: Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve.

Notes

  • Pounding the chicken breasts to even thickness ensures even cooking.
  • Serve with rice, roasted veggies, or salad.
