Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2.5-3 lbs bone-in skin on split chicken breasts ((brands will vary, but this will typically be 2-4 chicken breasts))
1 Tbsp olive oil ((extra virgin))
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground pepper
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil (or coat a baking dish with olive oil or non-stick cooking spray).
  • Rinse and pat dry your split chicken breasts. Coat with olive oil, rubbing the olive oil into the skin and breast surface side that will be facing upward during cooking.
  • Place the chicken breasts, skin side up, on your prepared baking sheet. Season each piece of chicken, sprinkling with combined spices: salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika.
  • *For extra crispy chicken skin, heat a skillet or frying pan to medium high heat. No need to add oil (it's already on your split chicken breasts), place the seasoned chicken breasts skin side down and sear for 3-4 minutes or until nicely golden brown. Then place onto your baking sheet and continue with steps 5 & 6.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches a minimum of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) when checked with a meat thermometer. *Check next to the bone at the deepest (thickest) point in the breast meat.
  • Remove the baked chicken from the oven and allow it to sit for 3-5 minutes before being served.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breasts. Look for split chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly. You can also use boneless, skinless chicken breasts, but they will cook more quickly.
  • Season the chicken breasts generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add a marinade or a rub to the chicken breasts for extra flavor.
  • Cook the chicken breasts over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out. If you are cooking the chicken breasts in a skillet, be sure to preheat the skillet over medium heat before adding the chicken.
  • Cook the chicken breasts until they are cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken breasts should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check the internal temperature of the chicken breasts with a meat thermometer.
  • Let the chicken breasts rest before serving. This will help the chicken breasts to retain their juices and make them more tender.

Conclusion:

Bone-in split chicken breasts are a versatile and delicious cut of chicken that can be used in a variety of recipes. They are perfect for grilling, roasting, baking, or frying. With a little bit of planning and preparation, you can easily cook bone-in split chicken breasts that are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection.
