Economical, easy and quick to make and so delicious! I would say this is my most Go-To recipe of all time. Having made hundreds of recipes, I still struggle to think of what’s for dinner! But this never fails. It’s always available at the store and it virtually cooks itself. And although I make it weekly, no one ever gets tired of juicy chicken with the crispiest skin!
