Ingredients
  

  • 4 pieces Chicken Breasts skinless
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice freshly squeezed
  • 2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well and add chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated.
  • Marinate for at least 30 minutes, ideally several hours or overnight.
  • Place the chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use a meat thermometer for accuracy in cooking. Experiment with the marinade flavors for variety. Let the chicken rest to enhance juiciness. Consider adding vegetables to the baking sheet for a complete meal.
