Do’s and Don’ts
DO:
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is perfectly cooked.
- Let the chicken rest after baking—it’ll stay juicier and tastier.
- Double the recipe for easy meal prep—leftovers can be used for lunches all week!
DON’T:
- Overcook the chicken—no one likes dry, rubbery chicken.
- Skip the seasoning—chicken breasts can be bland, so flavor is key!
- Forget to drizzle a little extra lemon juice or balsamic glaze for an extra burst of flavor.
Variations:
- Herb-Infused Chicken: Add fresh rosemary, thyme, and lemon slices on top of the chicken before baking for a burst of flavor.
- Spicy Chicken: Add a bit of cayenne pepper or chili flakes for a spicy kick.
- BBQ Chicken: Brush the chicken with your favorite BBQ sauce for the last 5 minutes of baking.
