In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 teaspoons parsley, remaining 2 teaspoons basil, salt, and red pepper; sprinkle over the chicken. Top with tomato slices.

CHICKEN BREAST WITH GARLIC AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.
• Core tomatoes, cut in half horizontally, and remove seeds. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place tomato halves cut side up on a rack in the oven and cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until shriveled and partially dried. Puree half the tomatoes in a blender until liquefied, then add remaining tomatoes, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Puree until smooth. (Thin with a few tablespoons water if sauce seems thick.) Strain to remove any seeds and skins, and set aside until serving time.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Blanch garlic in a small pot of rapidly boiling, salted water for 1 minute. Drain and set aside to cool.
• Create a pocket for stuffing by running your fingers between the skin and meat of each breast, leaving one side attached. Season all over with salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl, combine chopped parsley and garlic. Divide into 6 equal parts and stuff each breast between skin and meat, spreading evenly. If necessary, tie skin to breasts to keep in place.
• Heat chicken fat or oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium high heat. Saute chicken, skin side down first, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to oven and bake about 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside for 5 minutes, to redistribute juices before serving.
• Whisk tomato puree and coat 6 serving plates with it. Cut each breast into 1/2inch slices, across width. Arrange slices over puree and serve.

30 MINUTE GARLIC-PARSLEY CHICKEN-UNDER-A-BRICK

Steps:

• Preheat a heavy bottomed skillet over medium-high to high heat and preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Combine the garlic, parsley, almonds and lemon zest in food processor and pulse to grind into a dry paste. Loosen skin on chicken and layer 1/4 of the mixture under the skin on each piece of chicken. Wash your hands, grease the breasts with a liberal drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and season with grill seasoning. Place skin side of the breasts down in the skillet and top with another, smaller skillet. Weight the pan with a brick. Cook to crisp skin, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the pan to hot oven and roast for 15 minutes.

• Heat olive oil and garlic in a skillet over medium heat until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Dip chicken breasts in the garlic oil, then into the bread crumb-Parmesan mixture. Place chicken in a baking dish.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH GARLIC AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Preheat a gas, charcoal or electric grill until moderately hot. Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil, add garlic and boil 1 minute. Drain. Cut garlic into paper-thin slices and toss in a small bowl with the parsley and a little salt and pepper.
• Stuff about 1 teaspoon of the garlic mixture under the skin of each chicken half, in breast and thigh areas. Put chickens on a plate, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use. Reserve remaining garlic mixture.
• When ready to cook, grill chicken halves 7 to 10 minutes on each side, until they are just cooked through. Make sure all pinkness disappears but do not overcook.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a saute pan. Add remaining garlic mixture and saute gently until barely golden. Remove from heat. Add lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Put a chicken half on each of 4 warmed plates and spoon the sauteed garlic mixture over each. Serve at once.
