Savory Herb Roasted Chicken Breasts are juicy and flavorful chicken breasts marinated with a blend of herbs and spices, roasted to perfection.
Ingredients
- 3 bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts (about 2.5 pounds)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 lemon, sliced
- Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F.
- Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels to ensure crispy skin.
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and rosemary to create a marinade.
- Rub the marinade all over the chicken breasts, making sure to get under the skin for maximum flavor.
- Place the chicken breasts in a roasting pan, skin side up.
- Arrange the lemon slices around the chicken in the roasting pan.
- Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the skin is golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
- For a twist, try adding your favorite vegetables like carrots or potatoes to the roasting pan for a complete meal.
