Basic Broiled Chicken Breasts

Ingredients

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

4 bone-in chicken breast halves with skin

2 teaspoons kosher salt

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Dinner

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Rub olive oil over each chicken breast then season both sides with salt and black pepper. Place the chicken skin-side down on a broiling pan.

Step 2

Broil in the preheated oven for 10 minutes then flip the chicken breast skin-side up. Continue broiling the chicken until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the oven and allow meat to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
