This rosemary chicken dish is inspired by Jamie Oliver’s Golden Chicken from his Jamie’s 15 Minute Meals recipe book. We have made the recipe as it is in the book, and it is a good one, however, we’ve cooked the chicken quite often (without the bacon) and tried various different sides.
It’s delicious with our chunky oven chips or our roast veg. Try it with a baked potato, veg or salad…the choice is yours!
We’re lucky to have a very well established rosemary plant in our garden…that’s probably one of the reasons we’ve done chicken breasts like this so often…it’s got to be one of our favourite herbs, especially with chicken, potatoes and on garlic bread as a change from parsley.
Whatever you decide for your sides, enjoy the dish….now let’s get cooking the chicken!
