Simple Italian Baked Chicken image

I made this last night, "winging it" with stuff on hand. My husband said it was perfect and to make it again without changing a single thing. (I'm kind of known for inconsistent results due to making small changes that turn out badly). So to make sure I CAN make this again, I'm posting it. Hope you like it, too. It's super simple.

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons v 8 vegetable juice or 2 tablespoons tomato juice
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and pepper
1/2-3/4 cup mozzarella cheese, grated (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Liberally salt and pepper BOTH sides of the chicken breast halves.
  • Arrange chicken pieces in a glass baking dish just big enough to hold them without the pieces touching each other or the sides of the dish.
  • In a microwave-safe measuring cup or bowl, heat butter and V-8 just enough for the butter to melt. (About 20 seconds on high).
  • Stir in garlic powder, basil and oregano, crushing the dried herbs with your fingers as you add them to release more flavor.
  • Pour butter-juice-herb mixture over the chicken, turning the chicken as necessary for complete coverage.
  • Bake, uncovered, for 25 minutes.
  • If using the mozzarella, sprinkle it evenly over the chicken AFTER removing from the oven.
  • Tent loosely with foil to melt the cheese and keep warm until serving.
