Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces Boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 2.2lb) Look for firm, plump, and pale pink flesh without any unpleasant odors.
  • 1.5 tablespoons garlic herb seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 60 grams unsalted butter (cut into 12 cubes) Adds richness and moisture to the chicken.
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper For seasoning to taste.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400F / 200C. Lightly spray a shallow baking dish with oil and set aside.
  2. Pound the chicken breasts using a meat mallet to ensure they are all about the same thickness for even cooking.
  3. Pat each chicken breast dry with a paper towel, place in the prepared baking dish, and season generously with salt and black pepper.
  4. Drizzle olive oil over the chicken breasts and massage it in well on all sides.
  5. Evenly sprinkle the garlic herb seasoning over the chicken, flip and repeat on the other side.
  6. Add the butter slices evenly over the chicken.
Cooking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165F / 74C.
  2. Once done, let the chicken rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Serve alongside roasted vegetables, fluffy rice, or a green salad. For best results, avoid the microwave when reheating.
