Sure.. but it's really basic! LOL
I mince about 10 cloves of garlic, add olive oil, salt, black pepper, lemon juice (about 2 lemons) and a little paprika and poultry seasoning. I do a quick fry of fresh thyme (a little bit of olive oil in a pan, get it screaming hot, drop in a few sprigs of thyme for a minute and then remove thyme). Put the fried thyme in the mixture you just made and mix well. I use a mini-prep to homogenize.. but you can do it just as well with a spoon. Put your chicken in the roasting dish and rub the mix all over your chicken breasts (I use bone in and skin on.. but I suppose it would work with boneless/skinless). Take some fresh (non-fried) thyme and scatter it around the roasting dish. I also take the lemons that I squeezed and put those halves in the roasting dish.
Roast at 375 until cooked through.
