Easy Lemon Garlic Chicken Breasts Food

LEMON CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the garlic, and cook for just 1 minute but don't allow the garlic to turn brown. Off the heat, add the white wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt and pour into a 9 by 12-inch baking dish.
• Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them skin side up over the sauce. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in 8 wedges and tuck it among the pieces of chicken.
• Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned. If the chicken isn't browned enough, put it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices.

EASY PEASY LEMON & GARLIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• In the sandwich bag combine the garlic powder, lemon pepper, salt, lemon juice and olive oil. Give it a good shake.
• Score the chickn breasts lightly on both sides (this helps cut down the marinade time).
• Place chicken breasts into the sandwich bag and close. Give them a good massage and put in the fridge to marinate. If possible leave them over night but 20 - 30 mins is long enough for a great flavour.
• Remove chicken from the marinade and cook in your favourite way until the juices of the chicken run clear (on my George Foreman it takes around 15 - 20 mins depending on the thickness of the chicken breast).
• Et voila! I serve with buttered new potatoes and a crisp salad for a tasty, healthy meal. This chicken is also AMAZING on a BBQ!

BREADED LEMON-GARLIC CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the dry breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, parsley, salt and pepper.
• In another bowl combine the melted butter/garlic mixture and lemon juice; whisk well to combine (if you run out of butter when dipping the breasts, which has happened to me many times, just melt about another 1/4 cup butter and add in about 1 tablespoon more of lemon juice in the microwave.
• Dip chicken in butter mixture, then roll in crumbs (patting down the crumbs into the chicken breasts).
• Roll-up chicken jelly-roll style; place seam side down in a greased baking dish drizzle with any remaining butter mixture; sprinkle with paprika if desired.
• Place a slice of cheese on top the last 10 minutes of baking if desired.
• Bake uncovered for 35-45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked though (baking time will vary depending on how thin you pounded the chicken).
