If you’ve been following us for a while, you’ll know that when it comes to juicy chicken breasts, we consider ourselves experts.

For this baked chicken breasts recipe, we opted for boneless, skinless chicken breasts for a juicy, succulent consistency.

The sauce provides a delicious, even blanket around each breast, sealing in all of those crucial juices. No dry chicken breast over here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOW LONG SHOULD YOU COOK CHICKEN BREASTS IN THE OVEN?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With this recipe, you are first going to bake them until they are just done (about 20-30 minutes, depending on the thickness of your breasts). Then broil them for the last 3-4 minutes to achieve beautiful, golden, brown baked chicken breasts with crispy, caramelised edges!
