Chicken baked with tomato and herbs is delicious and very healthy. Tomatoes are versatile ingredients. They play the leading role in dishes cutting across cuisines.
The most exotic dishes around the world can be transformed by adding a tomato or two.I love tomatoes because of it's eye appealing color and taste. My easy chicken recipe baked with just roasted tomatoes and few herbs. The idea of baking chicken with roasted tomatoes came in my mind when I saw few Chicken pieces and fresh tomatoes in pantry. Of course fresh thyme and rosemary added more taste that I have grown in my kitchen garden. For a change I have used roasted tomatoes instead of fresh one and that is an additional taste of this dish, I must say.
It's also an easy chicken recipe to rustle up if guests suddenly drop by.
