In a small bowl, combine the Za’atar, olive oil, lemon juice and minced garlic. Mix well until you form a paste. Pound the chicken breast to a uniform thickness, about 1″ thick, then spread Za’atar seasoning paste on all sides of the chicken. Make more paste, if necessary.
Place the chicken on a roasting rack and put in an over preheated to 400ºF. Bake for about 30 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165ºF. Remove and let rest for 5 minutes.
