Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
7 garlic cloves, finely minced
2 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 boneless skin-on chicken breasts
1/4 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
1 lemon, cut into 6 wedges
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. In a 9x13 glass baking dish, whisk together oil, wine and lemon juice; stir in garlic, zest, oregano, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the red pepper flakes.
3. Sprinkle chicken on both sides with the remaining salt and black pepper. Place breasts skin side up in the baking dish with the lemon wedges.
