Solo Baked Chicken Breast Recipe

This Solo Baked Chicken Breast recipe is perfect for a single-serving, easy-to-make meal. It’s juicy, flavorful, and customizable with your favorite seasonings or marinades. Ideal for a quick and healthy dinner or lunch.

Ingredients

(Makes 1 serving)

  • 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast (6-8 ounces)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme or Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 lemon wedge (optional, for serving)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a small baking dish or sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

2. Prepare the Chicken

  • Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  • Place the chicken in the prepared baking dish.

3. Season the Chicken

  • Drizzle the olive oil or melted butter over the chicken breast.
  • Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper evenly over both sides of the chicken. Rub the seasonings into the meat for even coverage.

4. Bake the Chicken

  • Bake the chicken breast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, depending on thickness. Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) at the thickest part.
  • For extra browning, switch to broil mode for the last 2 minutes, keeping an eye on it to prevent burning.

5. Rest and Serve

  • Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
  • Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, if desired.

Tips

  • Thickness Matters: If your chicken breast is thick, pound it to an even thickness using a meat mallet for more uniform cooking.
  • Marinate for Extra Flavor: If you have time, marinate the chicken for 30 minutes in olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs.
  • Pairings: Enjoy with a side of steamed vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad for a complete meal.

This Solo Baked Chicken Breast is a quick, no-fuss recipe that delivers juicy, tender chicken every time! 🍗✨
