Oven Baked Split Chicken Breasts (Bone-In)

olive oil ((extra virgin))

tsp salt

tsp ground pepper

onion powder

paprika

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil (or coat a baking dish with olive oil or non-stick cooking spray).

Rinse and pat dry your split chicken breasts. Coat with olive oil, rubbing the olive oil into the skin and breast surface side that will be facing upward during cooking.

Place the chicken breasts, skin side up, on your prepared baking sheet. Season each piece of chicken, sprinkling with combined spices: salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika.

*For extra crispy chicken skin, heat a skillet or frying pan to medium high heat. No need to add oil (it&#x27;s already on your split chicken breasts), place the seasoned chicken breasts skin side down and sear for 3-4 minutes or until nicely golden brown. Then place onto your baking sheet and continue with steps 5 &amp; 6.

Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches a minimum of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) when checked with a meat thermometer. *Check next to the bone at the deepest (thickest) point in the breast meat.

Remove the baked chicken from the oven and allow it to sit for 3-5 minutes before being served.

Oven Roasted Bone In Chicken Breast

lb chicken breasts

chicken bouillon

tsp pepper

Preheat oven

Prepare seasoning

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil and chicken bouillon cube. Break the cube apart to combine with the olive oil. Add seasoning (onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and paprika) and mix until you have a paste to coat the chicken breasts with.

Prepare and season the chicken breasts

Rinse the chicken breasts, and pat them dry. Place the chicken breasts, breast side down, on your prepared baking sheet or in your baking dish. Coat each chicken breast with the seasoned bouillon paste, starting with lightly covering the bone side (ribs) and then turning over to coat the breast side thoroughly.

Bake the chicken

Bake at 400 degrees (205 degrees C) for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) when measured with a digital meat thermometer at the thickest portion of the chicken breast. *Check next to the bone for best results.

Rest the baked chicken

Remove the chicken when done, cover loosely with a square of aluminum foil &#039;tented&#039; over the chicken breasts. Allow the chicken to rest for 3-5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.

Grilled Bone In Chicken Breast

bone in, skin on chicken breast

vegetable OR canola oil

dry bbq seasoning

your favorite bbq sauce (or more to taste)

STEP 1: Preheat your gas grill to 400° (medium-high heat). Once preheated, turn off one of the end burners. This is your indirect heat section.

STEP 2: Prep the chicken. Wash/rinse the chicken breasts then pat dry with paper towels.Trim any excess fat from the chicken, then using a sharp knife or kitchen scissors, cut off the rib section.

Next cut the breast in half so each piece is about the same size.

STEP 3: Lightly brush the chicken on all sides with vegetable oil then sprinkle the dry bbq seasoning all over and give it a good rub. 

STEP 4: Lightly oil the grates with the vegetable (or canola) oil then place the chicken pieces skin side DOWN on the INDIRECT heat section. Close the lid and cook 15 minutes

Turn the chicken over and continue grilling skin side UP for 13-15 minutes more on INDIRECT HEAT (15 minutes if chicken pieces are large).

Transfer the chicken to DIRECT HEAT (hot area of the grill) skin side DOWN and cook 3-5 minutes or until the skin is crispy and golden.Using a meat thermometer your chicken should be 160-165° (it will continue to cook after you brush the bbq sauce on and while it’s resting when you remove it from the grill). NOTE: grill time may vary depending upon the thickness of the chicken breasts and the grill used.

STEP 5: Before removing the chicken from the grill, brush with barbecue sauce. Cook 2-3 minutes then remove the chicken from the grill.

Let the chicken rest 5 minutes to reabsorb the juices then serve.
