Steps
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a rimmed sheet pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
- Place the chicken breasts on the prepared sheet pan. Gently separate the skin from the chicken, creating a pocket under the skin. Be careful not to tear or completely separate the skin from the chicken breast.
- In a small bowl, combine the parsley, sage, dill, thyme, tarragon, rosemary, salt, butter and lemon zest. Stir everything together until well mixed. Spoon 2 tablespoons (28 g) of the butter mixture under the skin of each chicken breast. Press down on the skin and spread out the butter under the skin. It’s okay if some of it squeezes out the sides.
- Drizzle the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast the chicken breasts in the oven for 25 minutes. Rotate the sheet pan and tent the chicken with foil. Lower the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) and roast for another 25 minutes, or until the internal temperature of a chicken breast reaches 165°F (73°C).
- Remove the chicken breasts from the oven and set aside to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
