My friend, Gail, makes a Lemon Rosemary Chicken that is off the hook. My kids requested that I get the recipe, since it is one of their favorite chicken dishes. Now I'm going to share it with you!

Ingredients

1 chicken cut into eighths
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
8 garlic cloves, peeled
4 tbsp fresh rosemary
Kosher salt and ground pepper to taste.

Instructions

Combine all ingredients except for chicken into blender. Blend well and pour over chicken pieces. Marinate overnight or 6 hours. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Put the chicken into a casserole dish and baste often. When the skin is crispy brown, chicken should be done. Test with thermometer.
