Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Baked Chicken Breasts.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give a medium-sized baking dish a light greasing to prevent sticking.
Step 2
Next, gently place the chicken breasts into the prepared dish, setting the stage for a delicious meal.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, combine the French salad dressing, salsa, and dried thyme, stirring until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 4
This flavorful mixture will be the star of the show! Pour the dressing evenly over the chicken, making sure each piece is generously coated for maximum flavor.
Step 5
Now, cover the baking dish with aluminum foil, creating a little steam pocket, and pop it into the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Step 6
After this initial baking time, carefully remove the foil and let the chicken bake for an additional 15 minutes.
Step 7
This is when the magic happens! Keep an eye on it until the chicken is fully cooked and the juices run clear, signaling that it’s ready to be enjoyed.
Step 8
Your kitchen will be filled with mouthwatering aromas, and soon enough, you’ll be savoring a delightful dish that’s both simple and satisfying!.
