Easy, Easy Saffron Chicken Recipe
Chow
- 4 Chicken breasts halves, with skin and bone
- 2 medium brown onions, sliced thin
- 2 to 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 T Olive oil
- 1 generous pinch Saffron Juice from one lemon salt and pepper, to taste
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. A well-seasoned cast iron skillet is my preferred pan, but a casserole works as well. Put 1 T. oil in the bottom of pan, and then layer in the onions.
- Lay the chicken on top of the onions. Salt and pepper. Sprinkle the garlic over the chicken, and then the Saffron. Drizzle with remaining olive oil.
- Bake until brown, and chicken is cooked through. In a convection oven with cast iron, about 30 min. With a glass dish, about 45.
- Squeeze the lemon over the skillet. Let rest for 5 min. before serving.
