baked chicken?

Question

i'm learning how to cook, and i want to bake some boneless chicken breasts for dinner tonight...how do i do this?

Answer 1

For a beginner, your best bet is to use a bottled sauce--bake them in Italian, Ranch, or Catalina salad dressing.

The other good way is to sprinkle on a seasoning blend, like Mrs. Dash, and spray with buttery spray.

Either way, bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes---til juices are clear.
If you have a meat thermometer, it should be 170 degrees for chicken. If you don't have one---GET one....there is a fine line between chicken being done and OVERDONE.

Good luck to you, and remember---if you can read & follow directions, you can cook!!!

Here are two easy recipes for you!

Baked Honey Mustard Chicken
Quick and easy to prepare, and the kids love it too.

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup prepared mustard
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste, and place in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. In a small bowl, combine the honey, mustard, basil, paprika, and parsley. Mix well. Pour 1/2 of this mixture over the chicken, and brush to cover.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Turn chicken pieces over and brush with the remaining 1/2 of the honey mustard mixture. Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

Creamy Chicken Bake
Deliciousness in under an hour

Place 4 chicken breasts in a baking dish, drizzle with olive oil. Bake at 350°F. for 30 minutes.

In a medium bowl, mix 1 can (10 3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup shredded cheese, 1 can (about 16 ounces) drained diced tomatoes, and 1 can (about 16 ounces) drained chopped asparagus.

Pour over the chicken and bake for an additional 20 minutes. Enjoy! ~-~

Answer 3

Wash and dry the breasts

Turn the oven to 350 and have a cookie sheet with olive oil drizzled on it ready.

In one bowl, put some flour and season lightly with salt and pepper

In another bowl, crack an egg or two and season with hot sauce, if you wish

In another bowl, pour some a mixture of 2/3 breadcrumbs to 1/3 parmesan cheese.

Put a breast in the flour, coating both sides, shake off the excess and take it for dip in the egg, coating both sides.

Drop the breast in the bread crumbs and scoop some crumbs up on top so you don't bread your fingers. Coat both sides with the breadcrumb/cheese mixture and place on the cookie sheet.

Repeat with the remaining breasts.

Sprinkle the tops of the breasts with a little oil.

Bake for 7 to 9 minutes, turn the breasts over and bake another 6 to 8 minutes, depending on the size of the breasts, or until the interior is no longer pink and the juices run clear.

Answer 7

Place chicken on a lightly greased oven tray. cover with foil if you have it. helpes not to dry breasts, remove near the end to cooking to brown. if you are adding sauce add near the end of cooking if sauce has any sugars in it they will brown quickly, have a nice supper.

You should boil it in chicken broth then pour some sweet sour hot sauce on top. It sounds terribly bad but its tasty.
