Baked Chicken Recipe

Tonight for dinner I tried a recipe I found on the WW site and I was impressed.  Easy and yummy :)

I served the baked chicken with brown rice, corn, and a loaf of homemade garlic basil bread.  Easy meal with comfort food flair.

Baked Chicken (3 points per serving)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and lightly coat a small, shallow roasting pan with cooking spray.  Season both sides of boneless skinless chicken (about a pound or so) with salt and pepper.  Transfer chicken to the prepared pan and drizzle with olive oil.  Sprinkle with lemon juice (I just squeezed half a lemon lightly over the chicken), rosemary, and parsley.  Pour 1/4 cup chicken broth around chicken to coat the bottom of the pan.  Bake until chicken is cooked through, about half an hour.  Garnish with fresh lemon if desired.

This is a definite make again around our home:)

Note: I prefer dark meat, so I used boneless skinless thighs rather than breast meat.  It worked well and the portions were perfectly sized.
