Seasoned Chicken Breast Baked in the Oven

Chicken Breast Recipe
Skinless, boneless chicken breast stands as a kitchen favorite in my household. It is a lean protein, easy to use in countless meals. Yet, many home cooks find it tough to cook just right. You might end up with dry, tough meat or parts that are not cooked enough. This can turn a healthy meal into a big letdown. Picking good chicken is the first step to a delicious meal. High-quality chicken breast looks plump and feels firm. It should have a light pink color. Freshness plays a big part in both taste and safety. Some cooks like to leave the chicken breast out on the counter for 15 to 30 minutes which helps the meat cook more evenly from the edge to the center. The key to getting a good taste and a bit of crispiness is to make sure you have the right seasoning and use olive oil to coat the breast and this should help your breast get a golden crust and lock in the juices. Make sure that for an easy clean up  you don't forget to use parchment paper on top of your baking sheet.
