Pan roasted garlic and herb chicken breasts, an easy chicken recipe which will quickly become a family favorite!

Easy chicken recipe

One of the best ways I have found to make meal planning easy, is to buy protein in bulk, usually ground beef or chicken breasts. Because I keep a well stocked pantry, I can quickly make a 2-3 meals from that pack.

Today I am going to share with you an easy chicken recipe: a garlic and herb roasted chicken breast. It’s simple, delicious, and flavorful. Chicken breasts are smoothered in olive oil, garlic, and herbs creating a moist chicken entree that is ready in just half an hour.

As you can see, this is a giant package of chicken, a 5 pound pack, and this recipe uses three of the chicken breasts. You can use 3-4 breasts depending on the size. First off, you want to salt and pepper on both sides of the chicken.

Then you are going to combine 3 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic, parsley, and hot sauce in a mixing bowl.
