Neapolitan Herb Chicken

Print Friendly and PDF

This is the weeknight chicken recipe you'll make on repeat. A marinade of Neapolitan Herb Balsamic, Dijon, garlic, and dried herbs takes about two minutes to put together and transforms ordinary chicken into something genuinely flavorful — herby, slightly tangy, deeply savory. Marinate overnight when you can; even an hour makes a real difference. It goes over rice, into grain bowls, on top of a salad, or straight off the sheet pan.

Recipe: Neapolitan Herb Chicken
Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs

  • ¼ cup Neapolitan Herb Balsamic

  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • ½ tsp dried oregano

  • ½ tsp dried basil

  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 3 tbsp Single Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil (for the pan)

Instructions:

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the balsamic, Dijon, garlic, oregano, and basil. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. Place chicken in a gallon zip-lock bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over, seal, and turn to coat. Marinate at least 1 hour, or overnight in the refrigerator for best results.

  3. Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush a baking sheet with the olive oil.

  4. Remove chicken from marinade, letting any excess drip off. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.

  5. Roast until cooked through — about 20–25 minutes for breasts, 25–30 for thighs, depending on thickness. Rest 5 minutes before serving.
