Roasted Split Chicken Breast

Roasted Split Chicken Breast features bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts seasoned simply with olive oil, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper. Roasting at high heat creates a golden, crispy skin while the meat cooks to a safe temperature, offering a juicy and flavorful main course. This straightforward preparation allows for versatile seasoning and can be turned into a one-pan meal by adding vegetables.

Description

This recipe uses split bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts brushed with olive oil and seasoned with Italian seasoning and paprika, along with salt and pepper to taste. Roasting at 425°F for 40-50 minutes results in a well-cooked chicken with crispy skin and moist meat.

The combination of seasonings enhances the natural flavors of the chicken without overpowering it. The high oven temperature encourages browning and crispness on the skin.

You can customize the seasonings to your preference and optionally add diced vegetables or potatoes in the roasting pan for a complete meal baked all together. Garnishing with fresh parsley adds a touch of color and freshness.
