Lemon and Garlic Chicken

Tonight we tried Lemon and Garlic Chicken from Alicia's Recipes. I substituted drumsticks for the quartered chicken and reduced bake time to 40 minutes total. This chicken had great flavor and smelled fantastic while cooking! With minimal prep, it is a good easy dinner idea.

2 - 2 1/2 lbs. chicken, quartered
1 lg. clove garlic, crushed
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. rosemary leaves
Dash of black pepper
1 tsp. lemon rind
1/3 c. lemon juice
1/2 c. water

Instructions
Rinse chicken, pat dry. Place in shallow pan, skin side down. Combine garlic, salt, rosemary, pepper and lemon rind Sprinkle over chicken. Pour lemon juice and water over all. Bake, uncovered in preheated 400 degree oven for 30 minutes. Turn quarters. Baste.
Continue baking about 25 to 30 minutes or until tender. Makes 4 servings.
