Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts bone and skin on, preferably organic
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Sea Salt and Pepper
  • Chopped Parsley - optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

  2. Wash the chicken breasts and pat dry with a paper towel.

  3. Place in a baking pan. (I like to line the baking pan with parchment paper. You could also spray with oil.)

  4. Rub the chicken with olive oil (approximately 2 tablespoons, depending on the size of chicken)

  5. Season chicken by rubbing sea salt and pepper on both sides.

  6. Bake until the skin has browned and internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Baking time varies depending on the size of chicken breasts, but 45 minutes is what mine usually takes.
