Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Fresh herbs (optional, such as parsley or thyme for garnish)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it's hot enough to cook the chicken thoroughly.
  2. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a bowl, mix olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub the mixture all over the chicken breasts for even flavor.
  3. Lay the seasoned chicken breasts on a lightly greased baking sheet, ensuring they have enough space to cook evenly.
Cooking
  1. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  2. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, consider marinating the chicken before cooking. This recipe is versatile; feel free to add vegetables or experiment with different seasonings.
