For the Chicken
2 large bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts (12 ounces each), trimmed of extra fat
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary, or 1/2 teaspoon dried
Finely grated zest of 1/2 lemon
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
For the Sauce
6 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary, or 1/4 teaspoon dried
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
4 tablespoons butter, cut into chunks and chilled
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1
Make the chicken: Preheat the oven to 425u00b0F. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper. In a small bowl, combine the garlic, rosemary, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, and 1 tablespoon of the oil. Gently tuck half the mixture under the skin of each breast.
2
In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat (until just-shimmering hot). Swirl the oil around the pan, then add the chicken skin-side down and DFWI. Cook without moving (it's OK to press it down gently to make sure it lies flat) until the skin is browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Flip the chicken, move the skillet into the oven, and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
3
Make the sauce: Using an oven mitt, carefully put the skillet back over medium heat (remember, it's hot!). Add the garlic, red pepper flakes, and rosemary to the drippings in the skillet and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and cream, bring to a boil, and cook, stirring and scraping any browned bits off the bottom of the skillet, until the broth reduces and is thick, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the lemon juice, then whisk in the butter one chunk at a time until the sauce thickens and is glossy. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
4
Pour the sauce over the chicken or serve it on the side.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
