Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Slice the chicken breasts into strips, about 1 inch wide.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, dried thyme, dried basil, salt, and black pepper.
Add the chicken strips into the bowl and toss to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the marinade.
Let the chicken marinate for at least 10 minutes. For deeper flavor, marinate for up to an hour in the refrigerator.
Place the marinated chicken strips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching each other.
Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until they are cooked through and have a light brown color.
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve these high-protein chicken strips hot, accompanied by your choice of side dishes or as a topping on salads or in wraps.
