Recipe- Delicious Basil Chicken With Kumquats

This one pan, roasted basil chicken is an easy meal that’s bursting with flavor. Red onions and sliced kumquats become deliciously sweet when roasted and provide a vibrant pop of color.Quality matters with all ingredients. But I find that you can really taste the difference when it comes to olive oil. Enough trips to Italy have taught me that! Thankfully, the intense, full-bodied flavor of this olive oil is great for melding all the unique flavors of this basil chicken recipe into one delicious dish.

Ingredients

4 chicken thighs
2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 cup kumquats, sliced
1 red onion, sliced into wedges
1 tsp dried basil
salt and pepper
fresh basil, for garnish

Method

* Preheat your oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit.

* Place the chicken thighs, sliced kumquats and red onion in a cast iron or oven safe dish and drizzle with olive oil.

* Use your fingers to ensure eveything is coated in oil, including both sides of the chicken. Then, place the kumquats and red onion around the chicken.

* Sprinkle the chicken with the dried basil, salt and pepper.
* Cook for 40-50 minutes or until cooked through.

* If you'd like the top of the chicken more golden, turn the top broiler on for the last 5 minutes of cooking.
