Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a mixing bowl, combine lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.

  2. 2

    Add Chicken to Marinade

    Place the boneless chicken breasts into the marinade, ensuring they are completely coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

    Preheat the Oven

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

  2. 4

    Arrange Chicken in Baking Dish

    Remove chicken from the marinade and place it in a baking dish. If using, arrange lemon slices and additional herbs on top of the chicken.

  3. 5

    Bake the Chicken

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

  4. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve hot.
