@jakedduck!, Hokay, our favorite candyman, how about this? Maybe pick up an already prepared rotisserie chickie the next time you are in a grocery? Or....I also keep canned chicken breast on hand for those spur-of-the-moment times when a chicken salad, or salad addition or quickie chicken soup sounds good...(Buy some jarred chicken flavored Better than Bouillon in the soup aisle for the broth) After opening, keep refrigerated; it is condensed and a little goes far. Boil some dry pasta noodles and when semi-soft, add whatever veggies..green onions, celery, chopped carrots, chicken to broth... And here's a quickie that I know you can master for an easy baked skinless lemon chicken breast: Spray baking dish with oil, mix together 1 Tablespoon fresh or bottled lemon zest with 1 Tablespoon virgin olive oil or melted butter or ghee; add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Bake at 450 for 15-20 minutes...Wallah! Will eagerly await the maestro's results!! You can do this Louie! Betcha' 3 choc. bars and two orange creams from the ice cream truck!

I cook my one bone in chicken breast at 450 also...10 minutes each side after seasoning and using spray acacado oil.
You can brine it for a half hour or so before if you want. Either way this method results in juicy chicken... never overcooked. I found it best
to bring the chicken to room temp before cooking and letting it rest for several minutes after cooking.
I always check with a food thermometer when I take out but it’s never been underdone.
And there was a time when I used canned chicken too in a pinch. It’s really tasty but I would have to look at the ingredients now on the can. I also use Better than Bouillon on occasion. Great minds. Just gotta watch the sodium.
But, like you said....so easy and quick.

FL Mary who has a 20 minute chicken breast in the oven right now....used some s and p and creole seasoning and this time I had time to brine with salt and sugar.
