Today’s Delight: Tangy Lemon Rosemary Chicken

I’m excited to share this recipe for Tangy Lemon Rosemary Chicken with you all today! The zesty flavors of lemon combined with the earthy aroma of rosemary create a delightful dish that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re looking for a quick weeknight dinner or a special meal to impress your guests, this recipe is sure to please your taste buds.

Ingredients:

  • chicken breasts (~500g)
  • lemons (2)
  • fresh rosemary (2 tbsp)
  • olive oil (3 tbsp)
  • garlic cloves (3)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • baking dish
  • mixing bowl
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • oven

Start by preheating your oven to 375°F. In a mixing bowl, combine the juice of one lemon, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and pepper. Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour the lemon mixture over them, ensuring they are evenly coated. Slice the second lemon into thin rounds and place them on top of the chicken.

Transfer the baking dish to the oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the lemons are caramelized. Make sure to baste the chicken with the juices in the dish halfway through cooking to keep it moist and flavorful.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring a tender and succulent chicken breast.

Serving:

The total weight of the cooked Tangy Lemon Rosemary Chicken is approximately 700g, with 4 servings. Each serving is around 175g, and one serving is roughly 250 calories.

Tip:

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a drizzle of honey over the chicken before serving. The sweetness pairs perfectly with the tangy lemon and savory rosemary, taking this dish to the next level.

I hope you give this Tangy Lemon Rosemary Chicken recipe a try and enjoy it as much as I do! Feel free to experiment with different herbs or citrus fruits to make it your own. Bon appétit!
