Hello everyone. I hope you all had a great day. I just got over a cold so today was definitely better than the last few days. I had the best acupuncture yesterday. It made me feel 10 x better, and more energized. After work, I decided to put that energy into some good use and make a nice home cooked meal for my husband. Lord knows he deserves it.
I love Ina Garten. Her recipes are all pretty straight forward, and packed with flavor. Tonight I decided to cook Chicken with Goat Cheese & Basil. It only requires a few ingredients and a few steps. It doesn't get any easier than that. If you love goat cheese like I do, you will love this dish. I served it with brown rice, and some parmesan roasted broccoli.
Hope you enjoy the pictures. I included the recipe just in case you want to make dinner without all the fuss.
XOXO...DREY
Chicken w/ Goat Cheese & Basil
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 4-6 chicken breasts or thighs, bone-in, skin-on
- 12 ounces Montrachet goat cheese, with garlic and herbs
- Fresh basil leaves
- Good olive oil
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Place the chicken on a baking sheet. Loosen the skin from the meat with your fingers, leaving one side attached. Cut 12 thick slices of the Montrachet and place 2 slices plus a large basil leaf under the skin of each chicken breast. Rub each piece with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Bake the breasts for 35 to 40 minutes, until just cooked through. Serve hot or at room temperature.
