I have three techniques for cooking the juiciest, most perfect chicken breast at home. You will learn techniques and tips for making the ultimate baked chicken breast, pan seared, and poached chicken.
To bake the chicken breast in the oven, pre-heat oven to 450 F. Drizzle a shot of oil on both side of the chicken breast and season with a generous pinch of salt, smoked paprika, and cumin on both sides along. Allow the chicken breast to sit at room temperature for 20 minutes. Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 10 minutes, insert a probe thermometer and cook another 4-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature is 155F. Total baking time for the chicken breast will be about 15 minutes. Remove from oven, allow to rest 3-5 minutes with the thermometer still inside, and then enjoy.
