Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with non-stick spray or a light coating of olive oil.
- In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Place the chicken breasts in the baking dish. Pour the garlic butter mixture over them, ensuring even coating.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
- Remove from the oven, let rest for a few minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- Use room-temperature butter for better mixing.
- For extra crispiness, broil for the last 2-3 minutes.
- Let the chicken rest after baking for juicier results.
