Ingredients for Roasted Bone In Chicken Breasts With Herbs

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons white wine (or chicken broth)
  • Dried Onion Flakes
  • Lemon
  • Fresh Garlic Clove
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Ground Black Pepper

How to Make Roasted Bone In Chicken Breasts With Herbs

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients: 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons white wine (or chicken broth), 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. If using poultry seasoning, add 1 1/2 teaspoons.
  4. Place bone-in chicken breasts in a shallow baking dish.
  5. Poke chicken breasts several times with a fork to allow seasoning to penetrate.
  6. Pour marinade over chicken breasts, ensuring they are coated thoroughly. Turn to coat both sides.
  7. Place chicken skin-side down in the baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil.
  8. Bake for 15 minutes. Baste chicken with pan drippings halfway through.
  9. Remove foil, flip chicken breasts skin-side up.
  10. Continue baking for 20-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and juices run clear. This crisps the skin beautifully.
  11. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Drizzle with pan juices for extra flavor.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
