HEALTHIER BAKED CHICKEN BREASTS
Use whichever spice combinations you prefer. The key to baking white meat without it getting dry is topping it with butter and wrapping it in parchment paper. It locks in the moisture and is tender and juicy every single time. The paper absorbs most all of the butter so you are not actually consuming it.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Mix garlic powder, paprika, mustard, parsley, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub all sides of each chicken breast in olive oil and coat all sides with the spice rub. Place on a baking sheet. Top each breast with 1 tablespoon of butter. Cover each breast with parchment paper and tuck the paper underneath, creating a sealed pouch.
- Bake until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken from the oven and let rest 5 minutes.

[email protected]I'm always looking for new ways to cook chicken breast, and this recipe definitely fits the bill. The chicken was moist and juicy, and the breadcrumb coating added a nice crunch. I'll be making this again for sure.

[email protected]The chicken turned out great! I used a mixture of olive oil and butter to brush on the chicken, and it gave it a nice golden brown color. The seasoning was also perfect - not too salty or bland.

[email protected]I tried this recipe last night and it was a disaster. The chicken was dry and overcooked, and the skin was tough. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
