Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Thinly slice the chicken breast into strips, approximately 1-inch wide.
Step 3
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika to create the marinade.
Step 4
Add the chicken strips to the bowl and toss them in the marinade until they are thoroughly coated.
Step 5
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the chicken marinate for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
Step 6
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Arrange the marinated chicken strips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching each other.
Step 8
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Step 9
To achieve a slightly crispy exterior, turn the oven to broil during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
Step 10
Remove the chicken strips from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 11
Serve hot, optionally garnished with extra herbs and lemon wedges on the side for added zest.
