Tasty Tips with Tamara Cade: Lemon Herb Baked Chicken

Tired of the same basked chicken recipes? Here’s a new one to add to the rotation.

INGREDIENTS

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup lemon juice

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 teaspoons lemon pepper

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

¼ teaspoon salt

1 large lemon thinly sliced

2 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

Place chicken breasts in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag. Pour in lemon juice, olive oil, lemon pepper, basil, oregano, and salt. Shake it a bit so that all the chicken gets covered.

Let marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.

Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.

Remove the chicken from the marinade and place in a 9x13 pan. Discard any remaining marinade. Place lemon slices on top.

Cook chicken for 18-20 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Serve hot. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley (optional).
