Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon lemon pepper
½ teaspoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 - 1¼ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts thin-cut

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425℉. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil and all of the seasonings. Stir until well blended.
Add the chicken and toss to coat. Be sure the chicken is completely coated with the spice mixture.
Transfer the chicken to the prepared pan. Bake until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165℉ (using an instant-read thermometer). This will take approx. 10-15 minutes depending on the thickness of the chicken.
Use immediately or cool, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Notes

If using larger chicken breasts, cut each breast horizontally through the middle to create two thinner pieces.

For more intense flavor, allow the chicken to marinate in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
