Bake 400* 45-50 Minutes or until the Chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165*

How to Roast Garlic:
Peel and cut of ends of the Garlic
Place in a Ramakin Dish or any other small oven safe dish
Drizzle with EEVO

Roast for 30 Minutes or until done

I make extra and store leftover in refrigerator for other recipes. I use within a week. 

Use more Chicken and other ingredients for additional servings. 

I serve the chicken with a side salad

Pasta, Rice, Quinoa or Couscous
