Herbes de Provence Chicken



I was looking for a simple way to cook chicken thighs one night while Michael was out of town. I had bought Herbes de Provence for this chicken recipe and was looking for another use for the spice. I found this recipe on Joelen's Culinary Adventures. I think it adds a great flavor to the chicken and is a fast meal for a weeknight. Enjoy!!

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3-4 tablespoons Herbes de Provence spice mix
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
salt & pepper to taste
1-2 pounds cut up chicken (thighs, drumsticks, etc)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Whisk the olive oil, spice mix, lemon juice in a bowl to create a marinade.

Place chicken in a baking dish and pour the marinade over the chicken and toss to coat. Allow it to sit at room temperature for at least 10-15 minutes for flavors to absorb.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until juices are clear (time will vary depending on size of chicken cuts you use.)
