Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup Italian dressing
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.

Step 2

Pour the Italian dressing over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Add the minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the marinade.

Step 3

Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for the best flavor.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 5

Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting any excess dressing drip off, and place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish.

Step 6

Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) when checked with a meat thermometer.

Step 7

Once baked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve with your favorite side dishes like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh green salad.
