Equipment
- 1 9x13" glass baking dish
- measuring cups
- measuring spoons
- 1 sharp knife
Ingredients
- 6 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1 1/2 tsp. dried thyme
- 1 1/2 tsp. dried rosemary
- 1 1/2 tsp. rubbed sage
- 1 tsp. salt

- 3 large bulbs garlic whole bulbs, not individual cloves
Instructions
- Grease or spray a 9x13” glass baking dish.
- Place chicken pieces in prepared dish.
- Mix remaining ingredients except garlic.
- Pour broth mixture over chicken.
- Cut about ½” off the top of each garlic bulb (enough that you actually cut open the tops of all the cloves).
- Place garlic, cut-side-up in baking dish with chicken.
- Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes at 350°.
- Remove foil and bake an additional 30-40 minutes until chicken is lightly browned and cooked through.
- To serve: either squeeze garlic gently out of cloves and spread over chicken or use a paring knife to remove the outer layers of each clove and place over top of chicken.
Notes
NOTE: I added about ½ tsp. black pepper for increased flavor.
NOTE: You can substitute a whole, cut-up chicken, bone-in or boneless chicken thighs for the skinless, boneless chicken breasts in the recipe, although you may have to vary the cooking time.
