I love this recipe! It has become a standard dinner in our household. Healthy, easy to make and lots of flavor! I usually serve this with a brown/wild rice blend or quinoa and a side of veggies.<br/>Thanks for sharing!

I really liked the texture of this chicken. It's got a nice bite to it, without being tough or stringy. I have made it with rosemary and also, with tarragon. Both times it worked well. Thank you for a lovely recipe.

This was really simple to make and very delicious. I also added some chopped garlic, it's packed with flavour and the herbs really stand out.

5 star chicken! I like lemon & rosemary, so this baked chicken was a hit with me. I followed the recipe as directed except I used organic lemon juice from a bottle instead of fresh lemon juice. Very moist and juicy! I halved the recipe as it was just my husband and I eating. Served with a tossed green salad for a healthy lunch. Thanks for this recipe! Made for Photo Tag, 2/9/09 - NELady.
