I always make sure that I have a breast or two of this herb roasted chicken in my fridge. It is a fast and convenient way to have chicken on hand for putting into sandwiches, salads, pastas, etc... the options are truly endless.
Roasting the chicken is a healthy, no fuss way to cook chicken. The meat comes out soft and tender. The herb crust that I put on the chicken is to give a great herbaceous flavor to the meat. You can try this chicken in my HERB ROASTED CHICKEN SALAD WITH GARLIC MAYO DRESSING.
Enjoy.
Ingredients
- 2 medium skinless boneless chicken breasts
- 3 teaspoons mixed herbs dried or fresh

- Place the chicken breasts, presentation side up on the baking tray. Season with salt and pepper then sprinkle over the herbs. Drizzle with olive oil.

I think the size of chicken breasts has changed dramatically since Julia Child's day, which could account for some of her shorter cook time.
