  • Prep Time 10 minutes
  • Total Time 55 minutes
  • Yield Serves 4

Ingredients

    • 1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
    • 1/4 cup plain dried breadcrumbs
    • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    • Grated zest of 1 lemon (about 1 tablespoon)
    • Coarse salt and ground pepper
    • 4 bone-in chicken breast halves (about 3 pounds)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a small bowl, mix parsley, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, and zest. Season with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper.
  2. Divide parsley mixture into four mounds. Carefully loosen chicken skin with fingers; tuck parsley mixture under skin. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Place in a 9-by-13-inch roasting pan.
  3. Bake until skin is crispy, chicken is cooked through, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat registers 165 degrees, about 30 minutes.
