This is a wonderful and very easy chicken dish. Everything is in one pan so it makes for easy cleanup. Goes great with mashed potatoes or rice.

Ingredients

3 large skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
¼ cup water
½ cup olive oil
2 lemons, juiced
½ cup bread crumbs
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon paprika
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Arrange chicken breasts in a large baking dish. Pour water, olive oil, and lemon juice over chicken; sprinkle with bread crumbs, garlic powder, parsley, and paprika. Season with salt and pepper. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil and cut a few slits in foil to vent.
Bake chicken breasts in preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
