1
Prepare the Chicken
Begin by patting the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. This helps the seasoning stick and promotes even cooking.
2
Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, and lemon juice. Add the chicken and coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

3
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures the chicken cooks evenly.
4
Cook the Chicken
Place the marinated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
5
Garnish and Serve
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
