Lovely Lemon Chicken Recipe!

Here is a lovely Lemon Chicken recipe. This is a dish my mum made for us growing up. Here is my version with a twist 🙂.

Serves 4

4 tablespoons olive oil

2 lbs. chicken pieces

6 – 8 lemons, cut into wedges

4 - 6 cloves garlic, minced

3 tablespoons honey

4 sprigs fresh rosemary

1 whole head of garlic, cut in half horizontally

Serve with white rice or quinoa

Preheat oven to 400F.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until the skin is browned. If your skillet is oven proof, leave the chicken in the pan. Otherwise, place chicken pieces in a baking pan. In a medium bowl, combine the minced garlic, honey and the lemons. Pour over the chicken pieces. Add the rosemary and 2 halves of the garlic bulb to the pan.

Place pan in oven and bake for 45 – 60 minutes, until chicken is done. Spoon sauce over chicken occasionally while baking.
