For Baking: Place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
For Pan-Frying: Heat olive oil in the skillet. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
Rest Chicken:
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps the juices redistribute and keeps the chicken moist.
Garnish and Serve:
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve with your favorite sides or on a salad.
Tips for Success:
Marinating: For even more flavor, marinate the chicken breasts in olive oil, lemon juice, and spices for 30 minutes before cooking.
Internal Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to the proper internal temperature.
Sides: Serve with roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
