| Right now I am doing salt, paprika, onion powder and garlic powder when I bake them. The people eating these find pepper too hot/spicy. Any suggestions that would create a bit more flavor? |

Can't you marinate it instead? Like a teriyaki marinade or like Lawry's Hawaiin)?
Flavorful, but not spicy. |

Serve with like a honey mustard sauce or perhaps a gravey.
(Or even CFA sauce packets like I do with my kids). |

| BbQ sauce - there are lots of variety. Avoid the Carolina types which tend to be vinegar-based and therefore tangy and spicy, for example. |

| Try Italian seasonings or add rosemary, thyme, sage, and tarragon to your current mix. |

I think soaking in a brine May add flavor
I prefer thighs. Fat = flavor |

We do marinate sometimes. This is for the times we don't. |

| Try marinating for a few hours in Italian dressing. Remove from marinade and bake as usual. |

I'll wrap a chicken breast in 2 slices of prosciutto, start it on the stove in a skillet, turn over and stick in a 400° for 18-20 minutes. Super tasty and keeps it from drying out. |

This is a very simple but delicious way to cook chicken breasts. It includes brining and baking with butter and seasonings.

Lots of kosher salt is the answer. Plus buy quality chicken. Pound thin so you only have to cook a few minutes on each side. A little dried onion, garlic, and paprika. Grill, broil or pan fry about 3 minutes on each side.
