Roasted Bone-In Chicken Breast Recipe

1. 1

   Heat an oven to 450u00b0F. Line a broiler pan with foil and set a rack on top of it. In a small bowl, combine the butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt. If desired, add herbs or other flavorings to the butter.

2. 2

   Season the both sides of the chicken breasts liberally with salt and pepper. Using a finger, carefully loosen the skin from the meat and slide the butter underneath it. Using the back of a spoon, carefully spread the butter evenly under the skin of each breast.

3. 3

   Rub the skin of each breast with vegetable oil. Place the breasts on the rack and roast until the skin is golden brown and the meat is cooked through, 30-35 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes.

4. 4

   Carve the breast off the breastbone and rib cage, then slice cross-wise. Serve immediately.
