Step 1

Preheat the oven to 450°F.

Step 2

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Trim the chicken breasts of any extra fat tendrils and gently work your fingers under the skin and work half of the butter under the skin of each chicken breast, working it so spreads evenly. Drizzle each chicken breast with half of the olive oil and lightly pat so it evenly covers. Season each chicken breast with half of the kosher salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Bake in the oven for 50-60 minutes or until the internal temperature is 165-170°F and the juices run clear, then let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for 3 months.
