1. Heat the oven to 400 ° F and prepare the pan: heat the oven to 400 ° f with a grill in the middle. Rub the side of the pan and parchment with butter or olive oil; this prevents the chicken from sticking.
2. Prepare chicken: if necessary, pat dried chicken and knead with a little butter or olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and other favorite seasonings.
3. Transfer to the grill: place the chicken breast in the grill pan, spaced slightly apart. You can also add herbs or lemons around the chicken to add flavor.
4. Cover with parchment: put the parchment on the chicken and put it on the butter. Place the edge in the pan and press on the parchment so it sticks to the chicken. Chicken breast should be completely covered with parchment.
5.Bake until the temperature of the chicken reaches 165 ° F: transfer the chicken to the oven until the chicken is completely opaque, and record 165 ° f on a immediately read thermometer. Check after 20 minutes; the total cooking time is usually 30 to 40 minutes.
6. Chicken immediately, or refrigerate for up to a week.
