Ingredients
  

  • 2 Lemons  sliced
  • 1 tbsp Rosemary
  • 1 tbsp Thyme
  • 2 cloves Garlic  thinly sliced
  • 4 chicken breasts  boneless, skinless
  • 1 tbsp Avocado oil  high heat

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425F. Layer ½ of the lemon slices on the bottom of a baking dish. Sprinkle with ½ of the herbs and ½ of the sliced garlic.
  2. Place the chicken breasts on top and sprinkle salt & pepper. Place remaining lemon, herbs, and garlic on top of the chicken. Drizzle with olive oil. Cover with a lid or foil.
  3. Bake for 45 minutes until chicken is cooked through. If you want the chicken to be a bit more “roasty” then remove the lid/foil and broil for another few minutes (watching carefully not to burn it).
  4. Serve & enjoy!

Notes

Tip: You can add a leftover sliced chicken breast to your salad for lunch the next day!
