Lemon Chicken Recipe

With just a handful of ingredients you can put this fabulous Lemon Chicken Recipe on your table in no time. Truly one of the more simple chicken recipes, yet elegant enough for company!

This Baked Chicken Recipe is packed with flavor and super easy to fix.

I usually just add a simple side, like Green Beans with Roasted Onion and take advantage of roasting the onion as you use the oven for this baked chicken recipe.

If you double this lemon chicken recipe, you will have enough left over to pack into lunches for several days.

One of the best simple chicken recipes we have tried. It is also really tasty when you serve it cold, and it travels well if you need a good dish to take for a potluck. In that case, I would choose to only use chicken legs or thighs to ensure even portions all around.
Baked Chicken Recipe Infused With Lemon

Chicken Infused With Lemon
2 1/5 lbs chicken, cut up
2 cloves minced garlic
1 Tbs olive oil
1 lemon
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp oregano
1 Preheat oven to 400*
2 Zest the lemon with a microplane zester, or fine grater. Squeeze the juice from the lemon and reserve both zest and juice.
3 Rub the chicken pieces with the minced garlic.
4 Spray a baking dish with non-stick spray and add the chicken. Baste it with the oil. Sprinkle evenly with the lemon zest. Pour the lemon juice over the chicken, and then sprinkle with the herbs.
