Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Hazelnut Coating

    In a food processor, add the hazelnuts, garlic, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until the mixture is finely chopped and well combined.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Coat the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Bake the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it in a baking dish. Drizzle with lemon juice and then generously coat the top of each chicken breast with the hazelnut mixture. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, then serve hot, garnished with additional rosemary if desired.
