- Paprika
- Dried basil
- Vegetable oil (be generous)
Instructions
6 steps
- Preheat the oven to 230°C and let it heat for about 20 minutes.
- Pat the chicken breasts completely dry with paper towels. Moisture stops the skin from crisping.
- Put the chicken on a baking pan and season with salt, black pepper, paprika and dried basil. Garlic or onion powder work too.
- Be generous with oil in the pan: place the chicken skin side down in the oil first, then flip it so the seasoned side faces the oil and the spices stick.
- Bake until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
- Let it rest briefly after taking it out of the oven, then serve.
