Baked chicken with lemon and fresh herbs
4 steps
Prep:10minCook:35min
This is one of our favorite ways to prepare boneless skinless chicken breasts. Use fresh herbs, such as rosemary and parsley, and lemon juice to give plain baked chicken fantastic flavor. It comes together in one roasting pan and is mostly hands-off preparation-wise. Just let the chicken bake away in the oven for about half an hour, and it's ready to go. This combination of flavors also works well with turkey cutlets or white fish fillets. If you're looking to mix things up a bit, try using chicken thighs and/or a combination of your favorite herbs from your garden if you'd like
