950 gram chicken breasts on the crown

(2 chicken breasts)
1 tablespoon herbs (parsley, thyme, rosemary)

chopped
1 lemon
1 teaspoon garlic

chopped
40 gram unsalted butter

at room temperature
1 teaspoon olive oil
salt and pepper

Instructions

1 Combine the butter with chopped garlic, chopped herbs like parsley, thyme,
rosemary and grated lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
2 Gently with your finger go under the skin of the chicken forming a little
pocket. Place the butter into these pockets and spread out evenly by stroking
the skin on the top. Alternatively you can use a piping bag and pipe the butter
under the skin.
3 Rub the chicken from the outside with a small amount of olive oil and season
with salt and pepper.
4 Place the baking tray with the chicken in a pre-heated oven at 180°C (350°F).
Cook the chicken for 40 minutes pouring the cooking liquid over the chicken with
a spoon occasionally (also referred to as basting)
5 Rest the chicken for at least 5 minutes and remove the breasts from the bone
with a carving knife.
6 Serve with your favourite sides.
