Preparing the Chicken

Season the Chicken
Pat the airline chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and fresh thyme.

Roast the Chicken
Flip the chicken breasts and transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C). Roast for 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the oven and let rest.
