Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease.
Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Brush both sides with olive oil.
In a small bowl, mix salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle seasoning evenly over both sides of chicken.
Place chicken breasts on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips

For even thickness, pound chicken breasts to 1/2 inch thick before seasoning.
Serve with roasted vegetables or a side salad.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
