Frequently asked about chicken breast
How long should I bake chicken breast at 400°F?
About 18-22 minutes for an 8-ounce boneless skinless chicken breast at 400°F, until the center reaches 165°F. Bone-in adds 8-10 minutes. Always rest 5 minutes before slicing.
How do I keep chicken breast from drying out?
Three tricks: brine in salted water for 30 minutes, sear at high heat, and pull it from the oven at 160°F (carryover finishes it to 165°F). Resting under foil reabsorbs the juices.
Can I substitute chicken thighs?
Yes — thighs are forgiving and stay juicier. Bake or pan-sear chicken thighs 5-8 minutes longer than chicken breast at the same temperature.
Is chicken breast healthier than chicken thigh?
Chicken breast has fewer calories and less fat per ounce; chicken thigh has more iron, zinc, and flavor. Both are excellent lean proteins.
