Three-Ingredient Baked Chicken Breasts

Food Wiki

Here's a straightforward chicken breast recipe that relies on minimal ingredients. I often employ this as a foundational baked chicken recipe whenever another culinary creation requires pre-cooked chicken. It proves versatile and adapts splendidly to various dishes. On occasion, I incorporate garlic salt or other seasonings, depending on the specific application.

Ingredients

¼ cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly butter a baking dish.
Stir together melted butter and salt in a bowl.
Arrange chicken in the prepared baking dish. Brush butter mixture onto chicken until thoroughly coated, pouring any extra over chicken.
Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 30 to 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
