Baked Chicken Thighs with Lemon and Basil

Wednesday, August 15, 2012

Just something I threw together, you don’t need to be a genius in the kitchen for this one.  It IS good though.  I like simple food as well as complicated food.  This chicken is really flavorful and easy to prepare and forget in the oven until you smell it!
