Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Place the chicken breasts on a clean cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, thyme, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
Brush the marinade over both sides of the chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly coated with the delicious mixture.
Transfer the seasoned chicken breasts to the prepared baking dish and place lemon slices on top of each piece for extra zesty flavor.
Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Once the chicken is fully cooked, remove the foil and turn the oven to broil. Broil the chicken for an additional 2-3 minutes to achieve a golden brown color on the top.
Carefully remove the dish from the oven, garnish the chicken with fresh parsley for a pop of color, and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Low Fat Baked Chicken hot with your favorite sides, such as steamed vegetables or a light salad, for a complete and nutritious meal.
