Herb-Crusted Texas Roadhouse Chicken Copycat Recipe
Herb-crusted Texas Roadhouse chicken is a copycat recipe of succulent, juicy, tender chicken breasts packed with a ton of flavor from dried herbs and black pepper. It is a quick family dinner recipe for busy weeknights and meal planning.
Ingredients
- 2 large chicken breasts about 8 ounces each
- 1 tablespoon dried dill
- 1 tablespoon dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon dried basil
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon salt
- ½ tablespoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Arrange one chicken breast on a cutting board at a time. Cover with a layer of plastic wrap. Use a mallet to flatten the meat into an even layer.
- Mix the dried herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper together in a shallow dish or bowl.
- Dredge the chicken until each side is fully coated.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a skillet pan. Add the chicken and cook for 3-5 minutes per side until a crust forms.
- An instant-read thermometer will show an internal temperature of 165 F once done.
Remove from heat to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before cutting into four servings.

Notes
- I highly recommend buying a quality instant-read thermometer and a meat mallet, if you cook meat often.
- All herbs refer to the whole dried leaves, not powder. Use half as much (½ tablespoon) when substituting with powdered herbs. In total, approximately ⅓ of a cup of dry herb seasoning.
