Lemon Breast of Chicken
Lemon Breast of Chicken
I saw this picture for a lemon breast of chicken that looked really good. I thought I would share it with others who are forced into the kitchen several times a week. Anyway, here it is:
Ingredients:
1 whole chicken (weight is dependent on how many servings are required)
1 large lemon, cut into halves
Sprig of rosemary
Salt and pepper to taste
Butter or olive oil, whichever you prefer
Method:
Heat oven to 350 degrees
Rub butter or oil over the skin of the chicken until it is completely coated
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 juice from 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 to roast until juices run clear, basting every 15-20 minutes depending on the size of the bird.
Bon Appetit!
If you've followed these steps correctly, your chicken should look like the one in the picture.
