Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray an 8×8-inch baking dish with olive oil.

- Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish and pour the blended sauce evenly over them, ensuring each piece is fully coated.
Baking
- Bake the dish uncovered for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the sauce is bubbling with light golden spots on top.
- Let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute. You can garnish with fresh parsley or chives if desired.
