\"Perfect<\/p>\n

A few weeks ago on Insta, I asked if you all might be interested in a back-to-basics series about the best ways to bake proteins (i.e. chicken, pork, steak, seafood, tofu, etc.) in the oven. Your answer? A resounding yes, please. <\/em>Many of you had requests and questions about methods for cooking various proteins, plus more than a few tales to tell about proteins gone not-so-right over the years. I hear you! My little kitchen has seen\u00a0more than\u00a0its share of overcooked steaks, completely dried out pork chops, salmon skin glued to pans, and not-so-crispy tofu over the years too. Which\u00a0are never fun, especially since proteins can be pricey and intended for special occasions. But hey, it’s all part of the adventure of learning how to cook. And eventually, I’ve trial-and-errored my way to some basic methods for\u00a0baking proteins that have become super-reliable, super-delicious staples in my kitchen.<\/p>\n

So over the next two weeks, I thought we could work our way through each of them, beginning today with the #1 most requested protein here on Gimme Some Oven…baked chicken.<\/p>\n

Specifically, baked chicken breasts.<\/em><\/p>\n

Over the years, I’ve\u00a0received\u00a0countless requests for new chicken breast recipes, and many more for tips on how to bake chicken breasts\u00a0in the oven. Because\u00a0anyone who worked with\u00a0chicken breasts before know that they can be incredibly versatile, yet also incredibly finicky to work with, especially when baked in the oven. Cook them the wrong way and you’ll end up with a dry, rubbery, tough, and flavorless disaster. But cooked the right way?! We’re talkin’ juicy, tender, flavorful,\u00a0perfectly baked chicken breasts\u00a0that you will\u00a0love.<\/em><\/p>\n

The good news is that they’re also totally easy to customize with your favorite seasonings or sauces. And also, incredibly<\/em> easy to make with\u00a0my 5-step baked chicken breasts method. Thousands of our readers have tried\u00a0it over the years and reported back that this method was a game-changer with cooking chicken. So if you have yet to give it a try, let’s bake some chicken together!
