Ingredients
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Salt to taste (optional)
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before handling the chicken.
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Arrange the boneless, skinless chicken breast in a baking pan or casserole dish.
Evenly sprinkle the garlic powder and ground black pepper over the chicken. Add salt to taste if desired.
Bake for approximately 1 hour until the internal temperature reaches 165°F when measured with a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the chicken. The chicken should be cooked through with no pink remaining.
Comments
Chicken, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt are all reliably stocked at every Charlotte grocery chain, so no special trips needed. At typical prices for bone-in chicken breasts or thighs—around $1.50 to $2.00 per pound—this dish costs roughly $2 to $2.50 per serving, making it genuinely cheap. The stated 70 minutes is honest for baking, though prep (patting dry, seasoning) adds only five to ten minutes. This is a forgiving weeknight staple that reheats well and feeds a family without fuss, but the bare-bones seasoning means it relies entirely on good chicken and cooking technique to shine.
