Ingredients

  • 4 split chicken breasts bone in
  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic grated
  • 1 Zest of lemon
  • 1 tbs dried oregano
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ¼ tsp cayenne

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and place chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with foil.
  • Pat chicken dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
  • Meanwhile, mix together oil, garlic, lemon zest, oregano, coriander, salt and cayenne in a small bowl.
  • Using hands, gently rub the mixture underneath the skin of the chicken breasts.
  • Be careful not to tear the skin because that will help lock in flavor.
  • Spread mixture on all sides of chicken as well as underneath the skin.
  • Bake for 45 minutes or until juices run clear.
