Ingredients

• 4 (6-ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1–2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

• Preheat oven to 325ºF. Line large baking dish with foil (this will make clean up easy).
• Pat boneless skinless chicken breast dry with paper towel, and place in baking dish. Lightly drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper (or other seasonings or your choice). Rotate chicken breasts and repeat for other side.
• Bake 25–35 minutes (do not open oven until close to done as this will let steam out, no need to rotate chicken), until it reads an internal temp of 165º F. with a digital instant read thermometer and is no longer pink inside (thats for 4 to 6-ounce chicken breasts, large or thicker breasts may take longer). Be sure to not overcook or youll have dry chicken.
• Remove from oven and let set a few minutes before serving. To save leftovers: Allow to cool on plate. Refrigerate in airtight container up to 3–4 days. Or store shredded or chopped pieces tightly sealed in freezer up to 3–4 months.
