  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 tsp rosemary

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 F. Grease a 13 X 9 baking dish.
  • Place the chicken in a large zip lock bag with the Italian dressing, and marinate it in the fridge for 30-45 minutes. If you do not have time to marinate, the chicken go ahead and add the chicken and dressing to a greased 13 X 9 baking dish.
  • Add the seasonings to the chicken, and place the baking dish in the middle rack of the oven.
