Dietary fried chicken with rosemary is a refined dish of European cuisine that combines the tenderness of chicken meat with aromatic herbs. This recipe, inspired by Mediterranean culinary traditions, highlights the natural flavor of the ingredients while the simple cooking process preserves the meat's juiciness and nutritional value. Prolonged marination in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, fresh rosemary, and mint allows the chickens to absorb rich herbal notes, while baking at high temperatures creates an appetizing golden crust. Lemon juice adds a light tanginess that harmoniously complements the dish's flavor. It is an ideal option for those who appreciate healthy and flavorful dishes – perfect for both a light dinner and an exquisite lunch. Serve with salad or grilled vegetables to enhance its freshness and sophistication.
