Roasted Chicken with Lemon and Rosemary

Roasted Chicken with Lemon and Rosemary brings bright citrus and fragrant herb notes to juicy, tender pieces of chicken.

Roasted Chicken with Lemon and Rosemary
  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken, onion, lemon slices, garlic, and rosemary. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper; toss to coat. Arrange the chicken mixture in an even layer in the bottom of a baking dish.

  3. 3

    Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, until the bone is no longer pink and the juices run clear. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh near the bone should register at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
