Direction

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. In a small bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon each of salt, pepper, garlic powder, thyme, and parsley.

3. Take the chicken breasts and sprinkle the seasoning mixture over both sides, making sure they are evenly coated.

4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown.

5. Pour 1 cup of champagne into the skillet with the chicken and let it come to a simmer. This will help to keep the chicken moist while it bakes.

6. Transfer the chicken and champagne mixture to a baking dish and place it in the oven. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and registers an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

7. While the chicken is baking, you can reduce the remaining champagne in the skillet. Let it simmer until it has reduced by half, creating a delicious glaze.

8. Once the chicken is done, take it out of the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

9. To serve, place the chicken on a plate and drizzle the reduced champagne glaze over it. You can also sprinkle some additional dried herbs on top for extra flavor.

Enjoy your delicious champagne chicken with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables or creamy mashed potatoes.
