Oven Baked Chicken Breast

I made this recipe tonight with huge thick chicken breasts. It took about 35 minutes to get it up to the right temp because they were so big. I also didn’t have any paprika so I used just a bit of chipotle. This was hands down the best chicken I have ever fixed. My husband and son loved it even more than I did.


This chicken recipe is so versatile and delicious! I have made this a few times and it’s always a hit. I’ve tried the different seasoning variations and they are all amazing but the original is my go to. Love how tender this chicken always turns out.
