TENDER TOMATO CHICKEN BREASTS



Tender Tomato Chicken Breasts image

This is a light, juicy, flavorful dish. Being a mom of a 7 month old, I've learned to take a lot of shortcuts and still be able to cook quality food. This is quick, easy, and tasty. If you absolutely must use fresh veggies, that's ok, but frozen veggies, in my opinion, work a little bit better. Serve with rice, if desired. To kick it up a bit, add chopped green peppers in with the tomatoes.

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 1/4 pounds skinless and boneless chicken breasts
1 medium onion, chopped

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken breasts are evenly cooked, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the breast.
  • For a crispier skin, pat the chicken breasts dry before seasoning and baking. You can also brush them with melted butter or olive oil.
  • To add more flavor to the dish, use a variety of herbs and spices. Some good options include garlic powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, and oregano.
  • If you are using a cast iron skillet, preheat it in the oven before adding the chicken breasts. This will help to create a nice sear.
  • Serve the baked chicken breasts with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Baked chicken breast is a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It is a healthy and affordable option that is also easy to prepare. With a few simple tips, you can create a flavorful and juicy baked chicken breast that the whole family will love.
