Ingredients Meat & Poultry Chicken Chicken Breast Recipes Simple Baked Chicken Breasts 5.0 (2) Close Credit: Mike Krautter Prep Time: 5 mins Total Time: 30 mins Servings: 4 Here's the easy way to prepare moist, tender chicken breasts in the oven. Use for sandwiches, salads, tacos, soups, and casseroles, or simply serve with vegetables and potatoes for a complete meal. Directions Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place chicken breasts in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil. Add broth, scatter with herbs and cover with parchment-lined aluminum foil. Bake until a meat thermometer registers 160 degrees in the thickest part of the breast, about 20 minutes. Remove chicken from pan; let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
