Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 2 large split bone-in chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ cup chicken broth

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spread the softened butter all over the chicken skin. In a small bowl mix together the seasoning, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Sprinkle the chicken with the seasoning and rub all over making sure to get some butter and seasoning under the skin.
  • Place chicken in a roasting pan with skin side up. Pour the broth around the chicken so it coats the bottom of the pan.
  • Bake chicken in the oven for 45 to 50 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Juices will run clear. For extra browning of the skin, turn on the broiler and broil for 2 to 3 minutes or until skin is crispy and golden brown.
  • Remove chicken from the pan and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with pan juices if desired.
