- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until combined.
- Generously coat each chicken breast with the seasoning mixture, ensuring all surfaces are well-covered.
- Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish, arranging them evenly.
