Weeknight Meal: Baked Herb Lemon Chicken Recipe
For this Baked Herb Lemon Chicken recipe, you can either buy a whole chicken and whack it in half, or buy two chicken halves.
It’s a really easy and healthy baked chicken recipe that pairs well with tons of sides. I opted to pair mine with homemade mashed potatoes, roasted asparagus and sautéed mushrooms and onions.
It’s a simple and healthy weeknight meal. And, it’ll make your house smell amazing as the chicken is roasting in the oven.
Enjoy!
