Bake/broil chicken breast?

Question

I want to bake or broil boneless, skinless chicken breast to put on a Caesar salad. I don't have the time to marinate them and I don't want it to dry out. How long should I leave it on broil or bake? High or low heat or what temp for baking? Should I turn the breasts over at a certain length of time?

Answer 1

Put the breast into a shallow baking dish, and bake in the oven at 350 for about 10 minuets per side. If they need more time, then 5 more minuets per side at the same temperature.

Chances are if you broil them for too long not only will they dry out, but may char giving the chicken a burnt taste.

GOOD LUCK!!

Answer 3

Boneless, skinless, thawed chicken breast goes in a preheated 350 oven for 27 minutes...no turning.

Answer 4

Ok, I call this "Easy Chicken" and I make it when I just don't feel like cooking....
----------------------------

Take the chicken and put it in a baking dish.

Cut up a stick up butter (or a half of stick) and put it over the chicken.

Put some "Lemon Pepper" over the chicken and butter.

Cover with foil.

Bake at 350* for 30 mins (more or less depending on oven)

--------------------------------
It tast so good, you have to use the left over butter that is in the dish and dip the chicken into it.

Answer 5

I like to bake chicken in the oven at 350 from an hour and a half to two hours. I just put it in a pan with salsa, cream of mushroom, or italian dressing. Simple, fast, and yummy!

I do not bother turning the chicken either

Answer 6

Depends on the size of the breast. I would bake around 350 for 30-40 min..more if large, less if smaller. Try putting a smidge of butter on top and covering with foil.

Answer 7

Bake for 350 for 20 min., Depending on how thin the breasts were sliced. I'd add an extra 15 min. if they are really thick.You could just sprinkle italian dressing on it to give it flavor if you don't have time to marinate it. ;-)

Answer 9

the safest way to cook chicken or any foods is to use a meat thermometer and cook to 165. it depends on how you cook it. if there is any pink in it at all it's not done. and when you think it's done cook it longer. season with garlic,pepper and salt to taste. when the meat starts browning on the bottom turn it

Answer 10

I actually think it would be best to boil them. Try using broth, it makes them more juicy.
