Tuscan Roasted Chicken Recipe #296180
This chicken is very juicy and garlic-y, while the lemon is subtle. An adaptation of a Healthy Appetite with Ellie Krieger recipe. Does not include time if you want to let it marinate.

55 min | 10 min prep
SERVES 2
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1/2 lemon, zest of (I use a microplaner)
- 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- fresh ground black pepper
- salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh oregano or rosemary (thyme or sage would probably work as well)
- Combine oil, garlic, lemon zest and juice. Coat chicken with this, plus grind a few turns of pepper over it. At this point you can let it marinate up to a day or cook it right away (I like to let it marinate). When ready for baking, sprinkle a little salt over the chicken.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Roast chicken for 20 minutes, then add the fresh herbs. Cook for about 25 more minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. If you use bone-in chicken breasts, you will need to increase the cooking time.
