Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon vegetable or canola oil
4 chicken breasts, bone in and skin on
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 lemon cut in half
1/2 cup pitted black olives
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
handful of thyme (about 8-10 stems)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
  • Heat the oil in an oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Pat the chicken breasts dry, make sure they are very dry, and sprinkle the top with the salt.
  • Place the chicken breasts, skin side down, in the heated oil and sear for 5 minutes, or until skin is crisp and golden brown.
  • Flip the chicken over. Add the lemon, olives, tomatoes and thyme to the skillet and transfer to the oven.
  • Roast for 25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
  • *The chicken breasts I used were 3/4 pound each.
