A tender, juicy chicken breast coated with a flavorful blend of fresh herbs and breadcrumbs, then baked to golden perfection. This dish offers a delightful crunch with aromatic herbal notes, perfect for a wholesome meal.

Steps

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, combine parsley, thyme, rosemary, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and brush both sides with olive oil.
Press the herb and breadcrumb mixture evenly onto one side of the chicken breast.
Place the chicken breast on a baking sheet, herb-coated side up.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the crust is golden brown.
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve with a lemon wedge for an optional fresh squeeze of citrus.
