LEMON CHICKEN BREAST
I received this recipe for a lemon chicken breast that looked really good. I thought I would share it with others who are forced into the kitchena few times a week.
Ingredients:
1 whole chicken (weight is dependent on how many servings arerequired)
1 large lemon, cut into halves
sprig of rosemary
salt and pepper to taste
butter or olive oil, whichever you prefer
Heat oven to 350 degrees
Rub butter or oil over the skin of the chicken until it is completelycoated. Take a knife and gently separate the skin from the breast meat;Slide lemon halves under the skin with the peel side up. This way the juicefrom the lemon will coat the breast. Season skin of chicken to your preference, place sprig of rosemary into the chicken.
Cover and place in oven for 30-45 minutes. Remove cover and continue toroast until juices run clear, basting every 15-20 minutes depending on thesize of the bird.If you've followed these steps correctly, your chicken should looklike the
one in the picture below.Bon Appetite!
