Why settle for plain old chicken when you can jazz it up with the bright, refreshing notes of lemon and the aromatic goodness of rosemary? This recipe is super simple but looks and tastes like it took you hours to prepare. Your dinner guests will be bowing down to your culinary skills!
Ingredients Galore!
Before we get all chef-y, let’s talk about what you’ll need to whip up this delight:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 lemons (one for juicing, one for slicing)
- 4 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped (or 2 tablespoons dried, the flavor’s still divine!)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: a sprinkle of red pepper flakes if you like a little kick!
Time to Cook!
Now that we have our ingredients ready, let’s get down to business:
- First, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This is where the magic happens!
- In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. This is your flavor bomb, folks!
- Place your chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour the luscious mixture all over them. Give each piece a good massage – they deserve it!
- Top the chicken with your lemon slices for that extra zing!
- Pop the dish into the oven and let it roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). It should be juicy and tender!
- Once done, take it out and let it rest for a few minutes. You want to keep all those delicious juices inside!
And there you have it! Serve your citrusy masterpiece alongside some roasted veggies or a fresh salad. Get ready for compliments and maybe even a request for the recipe (you can keep that magical massage technique a secret). Happy cooking!
