Lemon chicken

 
Lemon Chicken
3 Points plus each.... depending on the size of your chicken breast

1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons minced garlic
1/3 cup chicken stock (or broth)
zest of 1 lemon
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
4-6 boneless skinless chicken breasts (or 6-8 tenderloins)
1 lemon sliced into wedges
salt & pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.  Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.  Remove pan from heat and add stock, zest, and spices.

Lay out chicken in a 9 x 13 baking dish.  Pour sauce mixture over the top.  Salt & pepper to taste and add lemon wedges.

Bake for 15-30 minutes depending on the size of the chicken.  (Or use a digital thermometer that alerts you when the your meat reaches the correct internal temperature...best kitchen gadget EVER!)  Serve hot with pan juices.
