baby red potatoes

olive oil (divided)

rosemary (divided)

black pepper (divided)

asparagus

lemon (juice and zest (you should have

(and black pepper)

Place a rack in the center of your oven, then preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Generously coat a large, rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. Place the potatoes in the center and top with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to coat, then spread into an even layer. Place in the oven and roast for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, place the asparagus, chicken, and garlic powder in a large bowl. Drizzle with the lemon juice and add the lemon zest, remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to coat, then transfer to the baking pan with the potatoes. With a spatula, loosely toss the ingredients so that they are evenly combined and spread into an even layer. Overlap the chicken as little as possible.

Return the pan to the oven and bake an additional 15 to 20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through, stirring once or twice throughout. The asparagus may release some liquid, which you can carefully pour off the pan, or use a slotted spoon or spatula to serve so that you do not get this liquid on your plate. Enjoy hot.

This simple yet elevated One Pan Meyer Lemon Chicken with Golden Rice combines the brightness of vibrant meyer lemons, with the cozy &amp; warm flavors of turmeric and ginger. It&#x27;s made completely in one pan, it&#x27;s a little different from your average chicken dish, and it celebrates the long-awaited winter citrus season! Serve it with your favorite roasted vegetable, or a simple salad!

One Pan Meyer Lemon Chicken with Golden Rice

bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 4 thighs)

extra virgin olive oil, divided

meyer lemon

salt, divided

pepper

salted butter, divided

meyer lemon, sliced

ginger

basmati rice

turmeric

juice of 1/2 a meyer lemon

flat-leaf parsley,

lemon wedges,

Preheat oven to 350℉. Place chicken thighs in a large bowl. Add one tablespoon of the olive oil, half of the garlic, meyer lemon zest, one teaspoon of the salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.

Heat a large oven-safe skillet (that has a lid), braiser or dutch oven over medium to medium-high heat. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, sear the chicken thighs for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the skin is golden brown and develops a nice crust. Set the chicken aside on a plate.

Reduce heat to medium. Discard a few tablespoons of the fat, leaving 3 or so tablespoons in the pan. Add one tablespoon of the butter. Sauté the meyer lemon slices in the butter/fat mixture for 1 minute or so per side, until they get a little caramelized and fragrant. Set aside on a plate.

Carefully, with a wad of paper towels, wipe any dark bits out of the pan (the chicken fat and sugars in the lemons can cause some burning, so just discard any bits that are too dark to avoid any bitterness). Add the remaining tablespon of butter. Add the remaining garlic and ginger and sauté for 30 seconds - 1 minute or until fragrant. Add the rice, turmeric, garlic powder, onion powder, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Toss to coat, and stirring constantly, letting the rice toast for 1-2 minutes. Season with a few turns of freshly ground black pepper.

Add the chicken stock, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, stir the rice, and arrange the chicken thighs on top. Top the chicken thighs with the sautéed meyer lemon slices. Cover and bake for 27-30 minutes, or until rice and chicken are cooked through, and all liquid is absorbed. Let cool for a few minutes, then remove chicken from pan and place on a fresh plate. Add the juice of half of a meyer lemon into the rice and stir. Place the chicken back over the rice and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve with freshly ground black pepper and meyer lemon wedges.

Tender baked lemon chicken coated in a flavorful lemon butter sauce. An easy 30-minute meal that requires only 7 simple ingredients!

Kosher salt (, more to taste)

lemon pepper (, more to taste)

Tablespoons salted butter

Tablespoons fresh lemon juice (, 1 lemon)

Tablespoon honey

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Pound the chicken to about 1/2&quot; thickness. If using thicker breasts, cut in half to create 2 thinner pieces. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, honey and garlic. Then pour the sauce over the chicken. Add green beans or asparagus if desired. Then bake for 15-20 minutes, or until chicken has reached 165°F. Spoon some of the sauce over the chicken half way through and just before serving.
