Baked Chicken Recipe
I enjoy preparing an entree that isn’t very fussy. I create it and let the oven do the rest. This recipe is low in fat and sodium and it doesn’t compromise great taste. Using coconut oil gives this recipe a subtle island appeal.
- 4 organic boneless/skinless chicken breasts
- 3/4 cup coconut oil
- 2 cups crushed "Barbara's" crackers (a healthier alternative for Ritz)
- 1 tablespoon freshly chopped oregano
- 1 tablespoon freshly chopped basil
- sea salt and pepper to taste
- In a medium size bowl crush crackers until they resemble fine bread crumbs. Add herbs and mix well.
- Rinse chicken breasts under water and pat dry. Coat both sides of the chicken in oil. (you might have to heat the coconut oil up a bit if it’s in a solid state).
- Roll moistened chicken breasts in crumb/spice mixture and place in a Pyrex baking dsh.
- Bake uncovered in a pre-heated oven at 350F for 40 to 50 minutes. Allow more time if your chicken breasts are thick.
- Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste when you are ready to eat.
