Time 1h

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon minced onion

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For the best results, use a whole chicken that weighs between 3 and 4 pounds. You can also use chicken breasts or thighs, but the cooking time will be shorter.
  • Make sure the chicken is dry: Before you coat the chicken in the herb crust, pat it dry with paper towels. This will help the crust adhere to the chicken and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs will give your chicken the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish: Make sure there is enough space between the chicken pieces so that they can cook evenly. If the chicken is too crowded, it will steam instead of roast.
  • Roast the chicken until it is cooked through: The chicken is cooked through when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check the temperature by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken.

Conclusion:

This oven-baked herb-crusted chicken with parsley-olive oil sauce is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is roasted until it is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, and the parsley-olive oil sauce is the perfect complement. Serve the chicken with roasted vegetables or a simple salad for a complete meal.
