A few weeks ago website, I asked if all of you were interested in a back-to-basics series about the best ways to bake protein in the oven (ie chicken, pork, steak, seafood, tofu, etc.) Can occur. And your answer? A brilliant yes, please. You have had a glut and question about requests and methods for cooking various proteins, as well as more than a few stories to tell about the not-so-perfect gone protein in the last few years. And hey boys, I’m listening.

My little kitchen has seen more than its share of cooked steak, completely dried out pork chops, glued to the salmon skin pan, and not even finished the year-then-crispy tofu. Which are never fun, especially since protein can be pricey and intended for special occasions. But hey, it’s all part of the courage to learn how to cook. And finally, I’ve been testing and my way to some basic methods for making an errored protein that has become super reliable, super tasty staples in my kitchen.  

All these ingredients smoothen your chicken breast together, creating a balance between magic and perfect. While baking, the juicer also lets the brown sugar chicken sweat making our baked chicken breast! Mostly like our favorite Chili Lime Chicken. 

When the chicken breasts cook 

Large chicken breasts (7 oz or 200 g) take about 20-22 minutes to cook. Take medium-sized breasts (5 – 6oz or 150 – 180g) about 18-20 minutes. You also have the option to throw crispier edges over your brawl in the last 2 minutes! 

Cooking them in high heat ensures crispy, caramelized edges while keeping your chicken super juicy on the inside. Once the chicken is golden and caramelized, it is cooked! Let it rest for 5 minutes to recirculate all of those natural juices through the meat. 

Cooked Chicken Temperature

 

I do not know if your chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer. It should read 165 ° F (75 ° C) when inserted in the thickest part of the meat.
