Weeknight chicken gets a bright, savory makeover here, bathed in a lemony baste built on two of our infused oils. It comes together in one dish with almost no fuss, and the aroma alone will pull everyone into the kitchen.
Ingredient Spotlight. Our Butter Infused Olive Oil lends all the golden richness of butter with a clean, silky finish, while our Oregano Fused Olive Oil brings a warm, herbaceous, sun-dried Mediterranean note. Together they make a baste that keeps the chicken juicy and deeply seasoned.
Place chicken in an ungreased 7x11 inch baking dish. Pour the butter/oregano olive oil mixture over the chicken. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Baste juices over the chicken. Bake for an additional 15 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter
Chef's Notes
Don't skip the mid-bake baste. Spooning the pan juices back over the chicken is what builds that glossy, deeply flavored finish.
Check that the chicken reaches 165 degrees F at the thickest part; larger thighs may need a few extra minutes.
Make It Yours
Serve the chicken and its pan juices over rice, orzo, or roasted potatoes to catch every drop of the lemon-herb baste.
This is one of those quietly perfect little recipes — warm fig compote spooned over cool Greek yogurt, with cinnamon-toasted walnuts and oats for crunch. It is a protein-packed breakfast that feels like dessert, and it comes together in about fifteen minutes.
This cheesecake is everything you want from a cold-weather dessert — dense yet creamy, fluffy and silky at once, crowned with warm spiced pears in a glossy balsamic glaze. It celebrates autumn and winter flavors but, in our experience, gets requested year-round.
This is the appetizer that quietly steals the party — grilled bread, cloud-soft whipped ricotta, cool heirloom tomatoes, and a dark, glossy balsamic reduction over the top. It is savory and sweet and fresh all at once, with a satisfying crunch, and it comes together faster than you would think.
