Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425 F.
-
On a cookie sheet, prepare a 12x12 inch parchment paper by folding it in half, cutting a half-heart shape, unfolding it, and then placing the chicken breast on one side.
-
Season the chicken with salt, pepper, herbs, and spices; top with lemon, orange, or lime slices.
-
Crimp the parchment paper edges together to form a sealed packet, allowing space for steam expansion.
-
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 F.
-
Carefully remove the packet from the oven, slit it open, and serve immediately or slice for other dishes.
