• 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
• 1/4 teaspoon ground sage
• 1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram

• 1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
• 4 bone-in chicken breast halves, with skin
• 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

In a bowl, prepare the basting sauce by combining olive oil, onion, garlic, thyme, rosemary, sage, marjoram, salt, pepper, and hot pepper sauce.

Turn chicken breasts in sauce to coat thoroughly. Place skin side up in a shallow baking dish. Cover.
