Protein

  • 2 pounds Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts (fresh chicken yields the best results)

Baking & Coating

  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano (use fresh for brighter flavor)
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Basil (Italian seasoning can be used as substitute)
  • 1 teaspoon Sweet Paprika (smoked paprika enhances flavor)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt (adjust according to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper

Cooking Oil & Butter

  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (switch with any neutral oil of your choice)
