This is a great dinner to make when you want a home cooked meal but you want minimal prep and chicken that pretty much cooks itself in the oven. Also, please use whatever herbs you have and like. This is just a guideline for my favorite flavors but definitely make this recipe your own!!
I love experimenting with a combination of fresh herbs and dried.
Skip ahead to minute 4:36 in the video above to watch me make this recipe!
Roasted Herbed Chicken- Serves 4
2 chicken breasts, bone in & skin on (about 2 1/2-3 lb total)
2 cloves of garlic minced
3 Tbsp butter, softened
2 tsp Italian seasoning (dried)
2 1/2 tsp fresh rosemary, minced
Juice of half a lemon
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Preheat oven to 280 degrees .
Combine all the ingredients besides the chicken in a small bowl. Mash together until everything is well incorporated.
Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel and smear the butter mixture all over the chicken including both sides and under the skin.
Place in a shallow roasting dish and cover with tin foil.
Bake for 90 minutes basing 2-3 times.
After 90 minutes remove the tin foil and increase the oven temperature to 425 and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes until the skin is nice and golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the oven and tent with tin foil. Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes.
Then remove the meat from the bone and add back into the baking dish and baste with the sauce.
Enjoy!
