Baked Rosemary Chicken

This one is very quick and easy. I had Italianni's Rosemary Chicken in mind when I made this.


INGREDIENTS


Chicken (breast or thigh, with skin)
Rosemary
Salt and Pepper
Olive oil
Herbs de Provence


STEPS
1. Preheat oven to 400F.
2. Rub salt, pepper and rosemary on all chicken pieces thoroughly.
3. Lay out the meat in greased (with olive oil) baking sheet.
4. Brush olive oil on all pieces.
5. Sprinkle some herbs de provence on the chicken.
6. Place in oven and bake for 30 minutes.


A trick that I use to make sure that chicken thighs are cooked through completely and not have any bloody sections is to cut through the meat along the bones to expose them. Always works for me.


Serve with some fragrant rice and grilled zucchini.
