Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the garlic, and cook for just 1 minute but don't allow the garlic to turn brown. Off the heat, add the white wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt and pour into a 9 by 12-inch baking dish.
- Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them skin side up over the sauce. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in 8 wedges and tuck it among the pieces of chicken.
- Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned. If the chicken isn't browned enough, put it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices.
THE BEST BAKED CHICKEN BREASTS
The downfall of most baked chicken breast recipes is the long time in the oven that dries out the lean meat before it can fully cook through. We've solved that problem with a couple of secret weapons. The first is white wine added to the baking dish, which creates steam. (While we think it's worth using wine, you could substitute stock or even water.) The second is a piece of parchment paper placed directly on top of the chicken to lock in the moisture during baking. The result is the best boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are plump and juicy, with a minimum of hands-on time. A bunch of parsley and lemon slices infuse the dish with fresh flavor and the seasoning is neutral enough that the chicken can be used for a variety of different meals. Serve it alongside vegetables and grains, shredded into soup, spiced up for tacos or chopped on top of salad. Feel free to switch up the herbs and citrus if you have leftovers in the fridge to use up.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the parsley in the center of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and top with the lemon slices. Pour the wine around the parsley. Brush the tops of the chicken with the olive oil and season with the paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Arrange the chicken breasts on top of the lemon slices. Cut an 8-by-10-inch piece of parchment and place it on top of the chicken.
- Bake until the chicken registers 165 degrees F on a digital thermometer, 40 to 45 minutes. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving. The chicken can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Steps:
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook 2 chopped onions with 2 tablespoons butter and some salt and pepper until the onions soften, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Add the chicken, 1 cup white wine, 2 bay leaves and several sprigs of thyme and parsley. When the liquid boils, lower heat to a simmer; cover and cook chicken for 10 to 15 minutes or until tender and just cooked through.
- Transfer chicken to a plate and keep warm. Turn heat to high and boil the mixture until it is reduced by three-quarters; it should be fairly thick.
- Lower heat, stir in 2 tablespoons butter and return the chicken to the pan to reheat and coat with sauce.
- Adjust seasoning. Garnish: Chopped fresh thyme.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Use fresh, organic chicken, lemons, and parsley, and a good quality white wine. Extra virgin olive oil is best as well.
- Marinate the chicken. Marinating the chicken in the lemon juice, wine, and herbs will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat. Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help to prevent it from drying out. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked.
- Use a good quality white wine. The type of white wine you use will affect the flavor of the dish. Use a dry white wine that you enjoy drinking. Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, and Chardonnay are all good choices.
- Finish the dish with fresh herbs. Adding fresh herbs at the end of cooking will brighten the flavors and make the dish more appealing. Parsley, thyme, and basil are all good choices.
Conclusion:
Lemon Chicken With White Wine And Parsley is simple to prepare and incredibly flavorful. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. Serve it with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
