Chicken for Heather

Here is a great recipe for the beginner cook (like my beautiful friend Heather), or when you just want an easy dinner.

Chicken breast
Several garlic cloves sliced
Poultry seasoning
Ghee

Directions:
Rinse chicken, pat dry. Don't bother making it look pretty, the fat and stuff will bake off during cooking
Cut horizontal slits into breast and stuff with garlic slices (more or less garlic depending on how much you like garlic)
With your fingers, rub ghee all over one side of chicken
Liberally sprinkle on poultry seasoning
Place butter side down in baking dish
Repeat buttering and seasoning on face up side
Cover with foil

Bake about 25 minutes at 375

I check the chicken at 20 minutes by cutting a small slit in the thickest spot to check for pinkness. Then I drizzle butter from pan over chicken and place back in oven for 5 more mins.

Soooooo good!

  1. I love this!! I can't wait to try it although I tried a modified version on the BBQ which would have turned out good had my husband not been playing around instead of watching the grill... >.>
