White meat chicken is one of the best lean protein sources you can include in your diet. It tastes great, is an excellent protein source, and can be added to just about any meal.
Below is my go to recipe for Seasoned Oven Baked Chicken Breast. It tastes great and can be diced up and added to just about any meal. Cook it ahead of time so that you can quickly throw together salads, soups, wraps, or whatever!
Ingredients
4 raw boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
(the ones I get are pretty large so they take a bit longer to cook)
Olive oil cooking spray
1 teaspoon ground sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 450° F. Line a baking dish with foil and spray it with olive oil nonstick spray.
2. Sprinkle the chicken breasts with the seasonings. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until juices run clear when pierced with a fork. (If you need to, cut it open to see that there is no pink)
To be safe, the internal temperature should read 165° F when inserted into the thickest part.
3. Loosely cover with foil and allow to rest 5 minutes before serving.
