Juicy Chicken Tip:
The secret to a juicy baked chicken breast is to cook it at a high temperature, blasting it with heat over a short period of time. Use a meat thermometer for 100% accuracy to ensure you don’t over-bake and dry out the chicken.
Chicken Options:
Chicken thighs and drumsticks bake beautifully when prepared this way. All you’ll need to adjust is potentially the cooking time. No matter which cut of chicken you use, you’ll want to make sure it still reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Lemon Slices in Easy Lemon Herb Baked Chicken Breast:
Not only do the lemons add amazing flavor to the chicken, but they taste amazing themselves. Try one and fall in love with the intense lemon flavor!
Make Ahead Instructions:
You can make the marinade up to 8 hours ahead. We like to start it in the morning so it can marinate all day, leaving us to simply put it in the oven to bake! If you’re looking for some other easy and delicious chicken recipes, here are some that you will love:
