Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 to 5 boneless skinless chicken breasts about 6 oz each
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon seasoned salt or table salt
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a rimmed baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine chicken breasts, olive oil, Italian seasoning, seasoned salt, paprika, and black pepper. Mix well to coat.
  3. Transfer the chicken to the prepared pan and bake uncovered for 22 to 26 minutes or until the chicken breasts reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
  4. Transfer to a plate or cutting board and rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  5. Cut into slices and drizzle with the juices.

Notes

  • Smaller chicken breasts will take closer to 22 minutes, larger chicken breasts will take closer to 26 minutes. For best results, use an instant read thermometer.
  • Chicken breasts can vary in size from 5 oz to 10 oz. The cooking time listed is for average-sized boneless breasts, 5oz to 7oz each.
  • If the chicken breasts are very thick on one end, pound with a meat mallet to a more even thickness. 
  • Store chicken in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven, on the stovetop in a pan, or in the microwave. Or, chicken breast can be added to soups, salads, or casseroles!
