Recipe: Chicken with Lemon and Herbs (baked in packets)

Main Dishes - Chicken, Poultry
CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND HERBS

1 cup chopped fresh mint, dill and parsley in about equal proportions, or to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, halved (about 4 1/2 pounds)
6 (12x15-inch) sheets parchment paper or aluminum foil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 lemons
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/2 stick)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Mix herbs and garlic together in a small bowl.

Flatten chicken breasts by pressing them gently against the work surface with the palm of your hand. Arrange breast pieces on paper or foil and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle herb and garlic mixture over chicken breasts.

Slice lemons and arrange 2 or 3 slices over each breast. Dot with butter and seal the packets. Set on a baking sheet.

Set packets in the middle of the oven and bake for 30 minutes. Transfer to serving plates and allow guests to open packets at table.
