Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board. Use a meat mallet to pound them to an even thickness of about 1 inch to ensure even cooking.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, honey, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the marinade over both sides of the chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let the chicken sit for 10 minutes to soak up the flavors.
Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil if needed, and sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly browned.
Pour the chicken broth into the skillet, then transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
Bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.
Garnish the chicken with fresh parsley before serving. Serve with your favorite sides such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
