Description

A comforting family favorite featuring juicy chicken breasts smothered in a creamy, herb-infused sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup of butter, softened
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh chives, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon of paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, mix the softened butter with minced garlic, parsley, chives, rosemary, paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Place chicken breasts in a baking dish and spread the butter mixture over them. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until cooked through, and juices run clear.
  4. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use room temperature butter for easier mixing. Don’t overcook the chicken and let it rest after baking for juicier meat.
