Stacey's LEMON CHICKEN BREAST

Ingredients:

1 whole chicken (weight is dependent on how many servings are
required)
1 large lemon, cut into halves
sprig of rosemary
salt and pepper to taste
butter or olive oil, whichever you prefer

Heat oven to 350 degrees

Rub butter or oil over the skin of the chicken until it is
completely coated
Take a knife and gently separate the skin from the breast meat;

Slide lemon halves under the skin with the peel side up. This
way the juice from the lemon will coat the breast. Season skin of
chicken to your preference, place sprig of rosemary into the chicken.

Cover and place in oven for 30-45 minutes. Remove cover and
continue to roast until juices run clear, basting every 15-20 minutes
depending on the size of the bird.
