Steps:
- Lay the chicken in a baking dish just big enough to hold the chicken. (See notes.) Pour the Italian dressing over the top. Cover the chicken then place it into your fridge for up to 24 hours, turning the chicken over once halfway through marinating. (See notes.)
- Remove the chicken from the fridge then preheat your oven to 420 degrees.
- Bake the chicken, uncovered, for 25 minutes. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese evenly over the chicken breasts then continue to cook for another 5-10 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Serve with a few spoonfuls of the sauce in the baking dish over the top.

THE BEST BAKED CHICKEN BREASTS
The downfall of most baked chicken breast recipes is the long time in the oven that dries out the lean meat before it can fully cook through. We've solved that problem with a couple of secret weapons. The first is white wine added to the baking dish, which creates steam. (While we think it's worth using wine, you could substitute stock or even water.) The second is a piece of parchment paper placed directly on top of the chicken to lock in the moisture during baking. The result is the best boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are plump and juicy, with a minimum of hands-on time. A bunch of parsley and lemon slices infuse the dish with fresh flavor and the seasoning is neutral enough that the chicken can be used for a variety of different meals. Serve it alongside vegetables and grains, shredded into soup, spiced up for tacos or chopped on top of salad. Feel free to switch up the herbs and citrus if you have leftovers in the fridge to use up.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the parsley in the center of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and top with the lemon slices. Pour the wine around the parsley. Brush the tops of the chicken with the olive oil and season with the paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Arrange the chicken breasts on top of the lemon slices. Cut an 8-by-10-inch piece of parchment and place it on top of the chicken.
- Bake until the chicken registers 165 degrees F on a digital thermometer, 40 to 45 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving. The chicken can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250°F. Butter a 13x9x2" baking dish and set aside. Scatter bread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally, until dried out, about 1 hour. Let cool; transfer to a very large bowl.
- Meanwhile, melt 3/4 cup butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add onions and celery. Stir often until just beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Add to bowl with bread; stir in herbs, salt, and pepper. Drizzle in 1 1/4 cups broth and toss gently. Let cool.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk 1 1/4 cups broth and eggs in a small bowl. Add to bread mixture; fold gently until thoroughly combined. Transfer to prepared dish, cover with foil, and bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of dressing registers 160°F, about 40 minutes. (Note: Dressing can be made one day ahead up to this point. Uncover the dressing, let cool, then cover again and chill. The next day, proceed with the final bake as described below.)
- Bake dressing, uncovered, until set and top is browned and crisp, 40-45 minutes longer (if chilled, add 10-15 minutes).
Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before starting, measure and prepare all ingredients to ensure a smooth cooking process.
- Choosing the Right Chicken: Select a whole chicken or chicken parts with even thickness for consistent cooking.
- Seasoning the Chicken: Rub the chicken generously with salt, pepper, and herbs like thyme, rosemary, or sage to enhance its flavor.
- Stuffing the Chicken: If using stuffing, pack it loosely into the chicken cavity to allow for expansion during cooking.
- Cooking Temperature: Bake the chicken at 350°F (175°C) to ensure it cooks evenly without drying out.
- Basting the Chicken: Brush the chicken with melted butter or olive oil every 20-30 minutes to keep it moist and golden brown.
- Cooking Time: The cooking time may vary depending on the size of the chicken. Use a meat thermometer to check if the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C) for whole chicken and 180°F (82°C) for chicken parts.
- Resting the Chicken: After baking, let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in tender and flavorful meat.

These recipes provide a comprehensive guide to preparing delicious and flavorful baked chicken. Whether you prefer a classic plain dressing or a more herbed and seasoned option, these recipes offer a variety of choices to suit your taste. Remember, the key to a perfectly baked chicken lies in proper seasoning, careful cooking, and allowing the chicken to rest before carving.
