Oven Baked Chicken Breast for Two

Ingrédients

• 2 chicken breasts
• 1 tsp brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp mixed herbs, oregano, or thyme
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp pepper
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp olive oil

Préparation

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 220 C (425 F). Flatten the chicken breasts slightly by pounding them with a rolling pin until the whole breast is of the same thickness.

2. 2

   In a small bow, mix together all the dry ingredients, mustard, and olive oil until a paste forms.

3. 3

   Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, place chicken breasts on parchment paper, and spread the spice and oil paste evenly all over the chicken breasts, bottom and top.

4. 4

   Bake the chicken for 18-20 minutes, until cooked through. For the final 1-2 minutes of cooking, if chicken hasn't browned, use the broil function of your oven to give it a touch of color. Watch carefully!

5. 5

   Allow chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.
