Instructions

  1. Preheat Broiler: Begin by preheating your broiler to the “Low” temperature setting to ensure even cooking.

  2. Prepare the Broiler Pan: Line your broiler pan with aluminum foil for easy cleanup and to help the chicken cook evenly.

  3. Arrange the Chicken: Place the boneless skinless chicken breasts onto the prepared pan, making sure they are evenly spaced.

  4. Make the Herb Butter: In a small bowl, combine the butter, minced garlic, dried parsley, dried rosemary, and dried thyme. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  5. Apply the Herb Mixture: Using a spoon, evenly spread a generous spoonful of the herb butter mixture over each chicken breast, ensuring they are well coated for maximum flavor.

  6. Broil the Chicken: Place the pan in the preheated oven and broil the chicken. Turn the breasts every few minutes while basting them with the remaining herb butter mix, cooking for approximately 15 minutes, or until the juices run clear and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

  7. Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked through, remove the chicken from the oven, let it rest for a couple of minutes, and serve with your choice of sides for a delicious meal.
