Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil Can substitute with vegetable or canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Fresh herbs (optional) Use for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to create a seasoning mixture.
  3. Take the chicken breasts and coat them thoroughly with the seasoning mixture.
  4. Place the coated chicken breasts in a baking dish, ensuring they are spread out for even cooking.
Cooking
  1. Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
  2. After baking, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing to allow the juices to settle.
  3. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.

Notes

For more flavor, marinate the chicken for a few hours or overnight. Serve with sides like salad, rice, or roasted vegetables.
