on

 

Contributed by Tamalin Christen
  • 1 cup chopped herbs (use your favorite), I have used mint, dill and parsley in about equal portions
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 6 chicken breasts, skinless, boneless, good quality
  • 2 lemons
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 350°.

Mix herbs and garlic together in small bowl. 

Flatten chicken breasts slightly by pressing them gently against the work surface with the palm of your hand. Arrange chicken on a piece of foil. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle herb and garlic mixture over chicken breasts. Slice lemons and arrange 2-3 slices over each piece of chicken. Dot with butter and seal the packets. 

Set on baking sheet. Repeat steps with each chicken breast. 

Bake for about 30 minutes (could also be cooked on a grill). Transfer to serving plates and allow guests to open their own packet at the table. 

Serve with grilled vegetables and crusty French bread. Makes 6 portions.
