Crispy skinned roasted chicken breast. Yummo. Based on boneless breasts weighing about 250g each. Better still if you can get it on the bone. In the last few years getting chicken breast on the bone has been very hard to say the least so now I buy a small chicken (about 1.2k to 1.5k) and quarter it (use back to make stock) and cook for about 30 to 35 minutes in a baking tray. For a larger chicken 1.75k to 2k (you will have to up the garlic butter mix) you will need about 45 to 50 minutes. Down the temperature by about 5 to 10 degree C for fan forced ovens.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

4 chicken breast halves (with skin on)
4 teaspoons butter
2 garlic cloves (crushed, in garlic press or minced)
paprika

Directions

1
Preheat oven to 180 degree Celsius.
2
Mix butter and garlic together.
3
Gently pull skin back on the chicken breast but do not remove. Spread 1/4 of butter/garlic mixture over meat.
4
Pull skin back over, sprinkle paprika on the top of the skin, then place breasts on a baking tray lined with baking paper (don't need baking paper if using breasts on the bone).
5
Repeat steps 3 and 4 with other 3 breasts.
6
Put in the oven and bake for 30 minutes (35 to 40 if on the bone).

Yum! I used a huge split broiler so had to cook it a little longer. It came out very crispy on the outside and tender and moist on the inside. I served it with rice and carrots and had a great meal. Thanks I'mPat for a great keeper. Made for Chef Alphabet Soup Tag.

wow, DH said this is the best chicken we have had in ages!! and i agree!! so tender and moist and delicious flavour! I had to use skinless boneless breast halves , it was what I had and I added a bit of parsley to the butter and garlic. It was sooo delicious, I will be making it again, thanks for posting this special chicken. Oh and btw the cook time was perfect!

This is SO easy!! Smells wonderful while cooking, and the chicken turns out moist and juicy. I used bone-in breasts, and Hungarian paprika. Thanks, this will be a regular for us!
