Scale
Primary Protein:
- 1 chicken breast
Vegetables:
- 1 cup broccoli
Seasonings and Oils:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt
- Pepper
Instructions
- Fire up the oven to a precise 400F and grab a clean baking sheet.
- Position your single chicken breast right in the center of the sheet, giving it some breathing room.
- Carefully splash 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the chicken, ensuring every inch gets a light coating.
- Dust your chicken with 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, then sprinkle salt and pepper to create a savory seasoning layer.
- Surround your chicken with 1 cup of fresh broccoli florets, spreading them evenly around the meat.
- Slide the baking sheet into the hot oven and roast everything for exactly 25-30 minutes.
- Check the chicken’s internal temperature reaches 165F to confirm it’s perfectly cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 3-5 minutes before serving your solo dinner hot and fresh.
Notes
- Opt for boneless, skinless chicken breasts of similar size to ensure even cooking throughout the dish.
- Pat the chicken dry before seasoning to help the spices stick and create a better crust on the meat.
- Check the chicken’s internal temperature with a meat thermometer, aiming for 165°F (74°C) to guarantee it’s fully cooked.
- Spread broccoli in a single layer on the baking sheet so it roasts evenly and develops nice crispy edges.
