Ingredients

2 large bone-in chicken breast halves with skin
0.25 cups extra-virgin olive oil
0.5 teaspoons garlic , minced
0.5 teaspoons coarse sea salt
0.5 teaspoons cracked black pepper
0.25 teaspoons dried rosemary
0.25 teaspoons dried basil

Instructions

1 Gather all ingredients.
2 Rub chicken breasts with olive oil and garlic; sprinkle with salt, black pepper, rosemary, and basil. Arrange chicken in a large baking dish.
3 Refrigerate for at least 45 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
4 Bake in the preheated oven until chicken meat is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 45 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the breast meat should read 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
5 Serve hot and enjoy!
