“When the aroma from this dish fills your house, your family will think you spent all day cooking.” But this elegant, Sunday-special entree, flavored with rosemary, wine and balsamic vinegar, is surprisingly simple to make. —Tracy Tylkowski, Omaha, Nebraska

I've made this recipe twice now & I must say it is one that we will make over & over.The first time I made it with the whole roasting chicken, it was fabulous, yummy, deslish, even though I didn't have the amount of onions it called for. Hubby loved it, kids loved it.Tonight I made it with boneless skinless breasts. I added a tiny bit of EVOO to the herb mixture before smearing it on the chicken that I punctured first so some of the herbs would go in the meat. They were moist & tender. I used a combo of 1/2 large yellow onion & 1 medium red onion, I didn't have wine or broth, so I sub'd apple juice.

I marinated mine overnight and the herb mix under the skin was fabulous.

Good easy recipe. If you want a crispier skin, adjust cooking time to 15 minutes on 450 degrees. Then lower to 350 degrees and cook 20 minutes per pound.

Add some butter beneath the skin of the chicken on the breasts to get juicer white meat.
