Rosemary Lemon Baked Chicken

On days when my schedule is packed, I will always resort to food that are easy to prepare - one pan cooking/baking with less supervision. My class finished around 1030 this morning, so I only have about an hour to get lunch ready.  I have some thawed chicken in the sink and some fresh rosemary in the pot so, easiest is Rosemary Baked Chicken. I dont have any red potatoes so substituted them with the regular baby potatoes. Nyums, love potatoes of any kinds. So, after popping those chickens in the oven, went on to transfer load in the washing machine to the dryer. And while waiting for the chicken to be ready, I have my class homework and preparation done. Alhamdulillah, all by Allah's will, that I am a multitasking Mama. Pray for me. Pray that Allah will always make easy for me. Ameen!



Roasted Lemon Chicken with Potatoes and Rosemary

1 Tablespoon fresh Rosemary plus sprigs for garnish
