I used the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foodnetwork.com\/recipes\/ina-garten\/lemon-chicken-breasts-recipe\/index.html\">Barefoot Contessa&#8217;s recipe<\/a>, because my mom has made it before and I knew it&#8217;d be a hit. (I was right.)<\/p>\n<p>Basically, just take olive oil, saute a TON of garlic in it, remove from heat, and add some white wine, thyme, oregano, salt, pepper, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Then, pour that into a baking dish, put your chicken on top, add more s\/p, lemon slices, and a drizzle of olive oil, and stick it in the oven for about 30 minutes at 400. You&#8217;ll have juicy, delicious chicken that is quite lemony, indeed!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/weeknight-dinner-lemon-chicken\/dsc_5134\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9363\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9363\" alt=\"DSC_5134\" src=\"http:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/DSC_5134.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/DSC_5134.jpg 800w, https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/DSC_5134-652x435.jpg 652w, https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/DSC_5134-449x300.jpg 449w, https:\/\/garlicmysoul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/DSC_5134-149x100.jpg 149w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>For the potatoes, we use olive oil, s\/p, and maybe cumin, and simply steam the green beans for a quick and easy weeknight dinner. <strong>What is your go-to chicken breast recipe?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jeff and I (read: I) decided to do a cleanse in January, which includes no white flour and no processed foods.
