To make sure that the breasts cook at the same rate, purchase two similarly sized whole breasts (not split breasts) with skins fully intact. Whole chicken breasts weighing about 1 1/2 pounds work best because they require a cooking time long enough to ensure that the skin will brown and crisp nicely. If you do not own a broiler pan, use a roasting pan fitted with a flat wire rack. This recipe can easily be increased by 50 or 100 percent. If you do increase it, just make certain not to crowd the chicken breasts on the broiler pan, which can impede the browning and crisping of the skin.

I heard on the Food Network station that roasting left the chicken with more flavor then boiling or cooking in the crockpot. So I thought I'd try it but found no roasting recipes here. So this one came form Cook.com

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 pounds boneless chicken breast halves with skin
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh oregano
3 teaspoons finely grated lemon peel, divided
2 garlic cloves, pressed
Freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds large carrots, peeled, cut on deep diagonal into 1/4- to 1/3-inch-thick slices
3/4 teaspoon minced canned chipotle chiles*
Coarse kosher salt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
4 ounces feta cheese, coarsely crumbled

Steps:

  • Place chicken between 2 sheets of plastic wrap; pound with meat mallet to 1/2- to 3/4-inch thickness. Place chicken in 11 x 7 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Drizzle with 4 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle with oregano, 2 teaspoons lemon peel, garlic, and pepper. Turn to coat. Cover and let stand 1 hour at room temperature.
  • Fill large bowl halfway with ice cubes and water. Cook carrots in boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Drain. Immediately place carrots in bowl of ice water to cool. Drain carrots; pat dry.

Transfer chicken to cutting board. Transfer carrots to large bowl. Drizzle carrots with remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and honey. Add cilantro and remaining 1 teaspoon lemon peel; toss to coat. Season with coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper. Slice chicken on diagonal.
