Description
A delightful dish combining rich garlic butter with tender chicken, perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 tablespoons garlic butter
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Arrange the chicken breasts in a baking dish.
- Melt the garlic butter and pour it generously over the chicken.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and there’s no pink in the center.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- Serve it on its own, in salads, or grain bowls, garnished with fresh herbs.
Notes
For best results, use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Marinating the chicken in garlic butter for at least an hour can enhance the flavor.
