How to bake chicken fillet in the oven? Prepare the products. This recipe is suitable for chicken breast fillet, but in general it is possible to bake any parts of it, it will only be necessary to change the cooking time. Take any vegetable oil you like or eat. I took olive. Take a set of spices to your taste, the amount of salt can increase or decrease.

First of all, prepare the marinade for the fillet. How to make a marinade? Take a small piano, pour all the spices and salt into it. Pour in the vegetable oil and mix the mixture thoroughly.

Wash the meat and dry with paper towels. Fold the chicken fillet into deep dishes and pour over the marinade. Use your hands to rub the marinade into the meat from all sides. Leave the chicken on the table to stand for about 20 minutes to soak in the marinade. If you have time, you can cover a bowl of meat with film and put it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours - it will taste even tastier.

Tear a long piece off the foil, place one fillet on the short side. Turning the edges sideways, wrap the meat in foil. Do the same with the second piece. For reliability, I wrapped each piece in another layer of foil. Thus, the juice will definitely not result when baking.

Place the meat in foil in a heat-resistant baking dish. Preheat the oven to 190 ° C, if electric, then choose top-bottom mode.

Bake the fillets for 30-40 minutes, depending on their size and the features of your oven. As time passes, remove the tin with the meat from the oven and leave to cool straight in the foil. That's if you want to use it cold. For a hot dish, serve the fillets immediately with the side dish.

Such meat turns out to be very juicy, it cuts perfectly and does not crumble. I often use it to make Caesar salad. Enjoy your meal!

Chicken can be replaced with turkey or any other type of meat you wish. But keep in mind that in this case, the cooking time and calorie content of the dish will change.
