- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp thyme dried
- 2 tsp rosemary dried
- 1 tsp oregano dried

- Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper, then place them in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag.
- Pour the lemon and herb marinade over the chicken breasts, making sure they are evenly coated. Cover or seal the dish/bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
