CHICKEN BREASTS

Ingredients :-

 







virgin olive oil                                    ¼ cup
fresh lemon juice                                2 tablespoons
garlic clove, minced                           1
chopped fresh thyme                          1 teaspoon
salt                                                       ½ teaspoon
crushed hot red pepper                        ¼ teaspoon
chicken breast halves with bones      4 (9-ounce)

As shown in the following picture,









Procedure :- 





First of all whisk the oil, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, salt, and hot pepper in a glass and make the mixture. Now add the chicken and turn to coat with the marinade.
After doing all this refrigerate, turning the chicken occasionally, for at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.
Then position an oiled broiler rack about 8 inches from the source of the heat and preheat the broiler.
In the last remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Place the chicken on the rack, skinned side down. Broil for 10 minutes. Turn the chicken over and baste with the reserved marinade. Broil until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken reads 170°F, about 10 minutes longer.
Now the Chicken Breasts are ready to serve.
Enjoy it.
