Tips:

  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken its flavor, so make sure to use a marinade that you enjoy. Some popular marinade options include olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, herbs, and spices.
  • Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes: The longer you marinate the chicken, the more flavorful it will be. However, you can marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours if you have the time.
  • Preheat your oven to the correct temperature: The temperature of your oven will vary depending on the recipe you are using. Be sure to preheat your oven to the correct temperature before adding the chicken.
  • Bake the chicken until it is cooked through: The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your chicken breasts. However, as a general rule, you should bake the chicken for about 20-25 minutes per inch of thickness.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
