Stage:
The bonus of using breast meat on the bone is that the meat will retain more moisture as it cooks. If the breasts alone are not on sale, go for a whole fryer chicken and remove the breasts yourself.
Serves 2
Ingredients
3 - 4 chicken breasts (with skin, on the bone)
4 - 5 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 sprig rosemary (free from my garden!)
fresh cracked black pepper
2 red potatoes, quartered
4 carrots, peeled
2 one inch wide slices of onion
Directions
Step 1
Pre-heat the oven to 425ºF. Wash and pat dry the chicken breasts.
Separate the skin from the meat to create a pocket.
Step 2
Mince the rosemary. Add the rosemary to a small bowl along with the garlic,
salt, pepper and olive oil. Stir to combine.
Step 3
Use about 1/6th of the olive oil mixture under the skin of each breast. Rub another
1/6th on the outside of the skin. Sprinkle with additional salt and pepper if you wish.
Step 4
Arrange the vegetables in the bottom of a roasting pan or casserole dish. Season with
salt and pepper to taste. Place the chicken, skin side up, on top of the vegetables.
Step 5
Roast for 30 minutes at 425ºF. Cover with foil and return to a 375ºF oven for another
20 - 30 minutes.
Step 6
Serve each person a breast, two carrots and four potato wedges.
The way I see it is the third chicken breast is for left overs.
enjoy!
