Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons garlic, minced
1/3 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon lemon zest, grated (2 lemons)
2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leave, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
4 boneless chicken breasts, skin on (6 to 8 ounces each)
1 lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • 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 X 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.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think it would be better suited for someone with more experience in the kitchen.

This recipe is amazing! The chicken is so tender and juicy, and the lemon sauce is the perfect balance of tangy and creamy. I will definitely be making this again and again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out dry and overcooked. The lemon sauce was also too sour. I would not recommend this recipe to others.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and the chicken always turns out perfectly. I usually serve it with roasted vegetables and mashed potatoes, but it would also be good with rice or pasta.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. The chicken was also a bit dry. I would not recommend this recipe to others.
