Poulet aux herbes et au parmesan

Ingrédients

• 4 chicken breasts (boneless and skinless)
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 4 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• salt and pepper (to taste)
• fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Préparation

1. 1

   Prep the oven.: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. 2

   Make the cheese butter mixture.: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, olive oil, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, basil, oregano, thyme, and red pepper flakes if you're using them. Stir to create a fragrant herb butter.

3. 3

   Assemble the chicken.: Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and season them generously with salt and pepper. Lay the chicken breasts in a baking dish and spoon the Parmesan herb butter mixture over each one, spreading it evenly.

4. 4

   Bake to perfection.: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and has an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Once done, let the chicken rest for a few minutes to reabsorb those lovely juices.

5. 5

   Garnish and serve.: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and perhaps a little extra Parmesan before serving.
