How to Make Baked Chicken Breasts Rosemary

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a shallow baking pan.
  2. Place 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) in the prepared baking pan.
  3. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of melted butter or margarine over each chicken breast. Sprinkle generously with 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of crumbled fresh rosemary.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes.
  5. While chicken is baking, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together ½ cup defrosted orange juice concentrate, ¼ cup dry white wine, and 2 tablespoons of mint sauce.
  6. After 30 minutes of baking, spoon the glaze evenly over the chicken breasts.
  7. Continue baking for another 20 minutes, basting with pan juices every 10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the glaze is nicely caramelized. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  8. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with flavored rice and fresh vegetables.
