Oregano Chicken

    My mom is a beef farmer's daughter, so I grew up with beef all the time. Eating chicken happened mainly when we went out and actually bought the chicken meat.
    I never knew or ventured to learn how my mom served chicken, because it was such a rarity, so I wanted to find a good one.


 Ingredients
     2 bone-in chicken breasts
     3/4 tsp garlic
     3/4 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
     1/2 tsp of dried oregano
     1 tbs of olive oil


 Directions
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees
    Rub chicken with garlic and sprinkle with lemon pepper and oregano.
    In a large skillet, over medium heat brown chicken, skin side down in oil for 5 minutes.
    Transfer chicken to shallow baking pan and bake for 30 minutes.
Changes I made!
   I lined the pan with foil, but outside that everything was the same and delicious.


Recipe comes from Taste of Home.
