Roasted Chicken Breasts

Ingredients

Intro

Healthy, and tasty. Very easy to overcook! Be careful. Poke with a knife to check for doneness. If juices run clear, it is ready.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Pat the chicken dry and season both sides with salt and pepper and any other dry seasoning of choice.
  2. Heat a stainless steel pan, and add a bit of olive oil. Sear the chicken on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  3. Place pan in oven if oven-safe, or transfer to tray. If using the tray, heat oven to 405 or 410 to account for heat loss. Bake for 10-15 minutes depending on size.
  4. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.
