Author Notes
I found this in a Seattle Times article online. I was cooking Ian Knauer's WONDERFUL Balsamic Glazed Ribs, found here at Food 52, which require a hot oven (425F). This recipe not only took advantage of that hot oven but the breasts came out great- crisp skin, juicy meat. I can envision making these and roasting veggies at the same time. —erinclancymiami
Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon
fresh rosemary, chopped
-
3
cloves garlic, minced
-
2 tablespoons
lemon juice
-
1 teaspoon
lemon zest
-
4 bunches
bone in, split chicken breasts
-
1/2 teaspoon
salt
-
1/4 teaspoon
black pepper
-
1 tablespoon
extra virgin olive oil
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Coat a baking sheet and wire rack with cooking spray.
-
Combine the rosemary, garlic, lemon juice and zest in a small bowl. Gently lift the skin off each breast and spread the rosemary mixture on the breast; replace the skin. Rub the olive oil over the skin and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Place the chicken skin-side up on the wire rack.
-
Roast in the middle of the oven until a thermometer inserted into the thickest portion of the breast registers 165 degrees, about 34 to 38 minutes.
