I never get tired of finding new ways to cook with herbs! A rosemary marinade sweetened with honey gives this moist chicken wonderful flavor and a pretty golden sheen. —Elsie Barton of Hoover, Alabama

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh rosemary
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 6 bone-in skinless chicken breast halves (7 ounces each)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the honey, vinegar, rosemary and oil. Pour half of the marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.
  2. Drain and discard marinade from chicken. Place chicken bone side down in a 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  3. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 55-65 minutes or until a thermometer reaches 170°, basting occasionally with reserved marinade.
