Golden and speckled with herbs on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside: Is this not everything you want for dinner? If you're busy running around the house doing other things, this is the perfect recipe to make tonight. With just 10 minutes of hands-on time, these chicken breasts practically cook themselves. It's also a meal preppers dream! Make a bunch of tender chicken breasts, and use them throughout the week with different dishes.
Serve these over a plate of perfectly cooked rice and you're good to go, but if you're an overachiever, a healthy salad would be excellent, too. If you have any leftovers we definitely recommend you keep the breasts whole if they can (this will keep them moist and will be easier to reheat. Store them in an airtight bag or container in the fridge for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months.
