What's your best chicken breast recipe?

Question

I am looking for a recipe that calls for chicken breast in the oven. Nothing too fancy shmancy, however, something that leaves the chicken moist and juicy on the inside. I heard of a recipe before that requires adding smashed breadcrumbs on the top of the chicken, but I had lost it. Any ideas?

Answer 1

This is quick and easy. A family favorite.
SATURDAY CHICKEN
5 chicken breasts
(you dont have to use that many chicken pieces. Use how many pieces you want. the rest of the recipe stays the same.)
1 can condensed cream of mushroom (or cream of chicken)
1 cup of cream (dont cheat and use milk; the cream makes a lot of difference)(i have cheated and used milk lol but the cream does make it taste better)
salt, garlic powder, and paprika- to taste
chopped parsley
Season chicken with salt, garlic, and paprika. Next, spread it out, in one layer baking pan. Dilute the soup with the cream; pour it over the chicken, and sprinkle parsley on top.
Bake , uncovered, at 350' for 30 minutes or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with fork.
Makes a delicious gravy. Serve with mashed potatoes or buttered noodles or rice.

The original recipe called for mayonnaise but I substituted ranch dressing instead. It turned out awesome.

Answer 2

I just made this one tonight

4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
shake and bake (extra crispy)
2/3rds C cream of chicken soup (or you can use cream of mushroom, cream of celery or cream of broccoli soup)
1/4 C milk
Shredded cheese (whatever kind you like)

Grease a 13x9 dish and preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Coat the chicken with the shake and bake. Put it into the grease dish and put in the oven for 20 minutes or til the chicken is done. While that is cooking mix the cream soup with the milk. Spoon that mixture over the chicken and then sprinkle that with the cheese. Put it back in the oven for another 5 minutes. The chicken comes out really juicy. I served mine on a bed of rice.

Hope you find the recipe you are searching for.

I make this all the time & my sweetie loves it!! Here are the directions for 4 packets....Take 4 lg pieces of foil & 1 cleaned breast in the center of each. Add a couple of baby potatos cut in half, 1/4 onion sliced & some baby carrots on top of each. Over that, spoon 1/4 can cream of mushroom soup, 1 tsp worchester sauce & a couple of pats of butter. Sprinkle with fresh ground pepper & garlic salt, then seal packets. Bake @ 350 for about 30 - 40 minutes or til done....Chicken turns out tender & jucy every time - even better, there's not much of a mess to clean up afterwards.....

I made this dish for my friends once and they all raved about it- I couldn't eat it because I'm vegetarian, but they absolutely loved it and they still talk about it.

Take chicken breasts and marinate them in teriyaki sauce.
Saute peppers (any color you like), onions, and mushrooms in butter until they are soft.
Take the chicken out of the bag, tray, or whatever you were marinating it in and put it in a greased baking dish.
Cover the chicken with the peppers, onions, and mushrooms.
Bake covered at 400 degrees until done- about 40 minutes or so I think?
While the chicken is baking, fry a few strips of bacon in a pan until crispy.
Drain the bacon on a paper towel.
Take the chicken out of the oven and take off the cover.
Crumble the bacon over the chicken along with cheese- whatever type you like..I think I used some type of 4 cheese blend or Monterey Jack.
Put back in oven uncovered and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until the cheese is nice and melty.
Enjoy!

Answer 5

Chicken Breast stuffed with Feta Cheese, Sundried Tomato, and Red Bell Pepper:

55 min 20 min prep
4 servings

4 chicken breasts, pounded thin
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
6 cloves garlic, minced
5 large sun-dried tomatoes, diced
1 teaspoon thyme
8 ounces feta cheese, crumbled finely
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (I use Italian style)
olive oil
salt
pepper
toothpicks (or Butcher String)
green onions, chopped (for garnish)

1. Saute garlic and red bell pepper, in Olive Oil, for about 3 minutes (just enough to"combine" the flavors).
2. Put aside to cool.
3. In a bowl, combine Feta Cheese, Breadcrumbs, thyme, Sundried Tomatoes, and Garlic and Red Pepper mixture.
4. Toss until well mixed (This will be your"stuffing").
5. Lay a flattened piece of Chicken Breast on a cutting board or your counter.
6. Put a 1/4 of the above mixture on the flattened Chicken Breast like you would be making a Burrito, and roll as tight as you can get it.
7. Secure it with a toothpick or butcher string.
8. Place Chicken Breast"roll" on a baking sheet (I spray it with Pam so it does'nt stick), brush with olive oil (this gives it a nice golden brown texture), and season with Salt and Pepper.
9. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
10. Cook for about 35 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees.
11. I guess you could try it on a grill, but I never attempted it yet!
12. Garnish with choopped Green Onion and serve hot.

These are really easy, really good and also healthy. With boneless, skinless chicken breasts, add:

chopped green pepper, italian dressing and cheese

roll in Good Seasons Italian dressing packet, top with parmesan cheese
For all 3, bake at 375 until cooked through (usually about 40 minutes)

Answer 10

I love when it is in a dressing or marmalade to sit all day.. Wrap it in tin foil and cook it.. Love it... And it is a change from the same old thing.. It can be thrown on a pizza or a sandwich or a taco or even in an omelet..
