Ingredients

4 chicken breasts skinless, boneless
1 lemon sliced into rings
4 tsp garlic minced
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp thyme
4 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp butter
fresh parsley for serving

Instructions

Preheat oven to 450°F. Set aside a large baking sheet.
Place chicken breasts on the baking sheet. Rub with 1 tablespoon oil.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle minced garlic, oregano and thyme.
Drizzle the rest of olive oil evenly across. Toss to mix well. Place several lemon slices on top of chicken.
Butter a piece of parchment paper, and cover the chicken and vegetables with buttered parchment paper (butter side facing down)
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes.
As soon as clear juice starts to seep out of your chicken breasts, it means that they are cooked through. If chicken looks pale, broil for the last 5 minutes.
Let your chicken rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Cover with aluminum foil while resting. Serve and enjoy!
