Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon Fresh oregano
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, chopped fresh rosemary, thyme, oregano, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Stir well to create an herb marinade.
Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish. Pour the herb marinade over the chicken, ensuring that each piece is well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
After marinating, arrange the chicken breasts in a baking dish. Pour any remaining marinade over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and registers an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Five minutes before the chicken is done, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over each piece of chicken. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired and serve warm.
