Lemon-Garlic Chicken

This is a riff on the Chit Chat Chomp-Inspired Lemon-Lavender Chicken I made a couple of months ago. This time I used ginger syrup instead of honey and skipped the lavender altogether. I roasted these so that I could slice them up tomorrow morning for lunchboxes.

3 pounds of chicken (I used all thighs)

2 T minced garlic
4 T olive oil

4 T ginger syrup

3 sprigs of thyme
freshly ground sea salt
freshly ground pepper

juice from 1 lemon
1 lemon thinly sliced

Combine with the oil, ginger syrup, thyme, garlic, and lemon juice and mix well. Add the chicken pieces and marinate for at least 30 minutes (mine sat for 60 minutes).

When ready, preheat the oven to 395 degrees F and put the chicken and marinade into a baking dish and sprinkle with a freshly ground sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Lay lemon slices over the top. Roast the chicken for 50 minutes, covered with foil. Uncover and roast for an additional 10-15 minutes. Let cool. As I wrote, these are destined for lunches tomorrow. I'll put them in wraps for the boys and atop a salad for me. Easy peasy.

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless. Oahu, October 2017 So for this month's Food'N'Flix, I chose to open up the field and let all of the food bloggers take a (virtual) Hawaiian holiday.
