Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless about 3/4 pound each
  • 2 teaspoons cajun or creole seasoning

Instructions

  • Trim any fat from a boneless, skinless chicken breast. Let sit on out of the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350℉.
  • Sprinkle seasoning on top and gently rub in to the top of the chicken breast.
  • Place in a 9 x 13" glass baking dish and spread chicken out to be evenly spaced to allow air flow around every side of every piece of chicken.
  • Bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160℉.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes. The chicken will continue to cook and is safe to eat once it has reached an internal temperature of 165℉. Serve warm and enjoy!
