Garlic and Basil Chicken Thighs

This is super easy, light, tasty and healthy. I served it with rice (poured the yummy juices over it..mmmm) and I loved everything about it. My kids loved it, too! I'm sure it'd be just as great with chicken breasts. Tweaked a recipe from allrecipes. Serves 6 to 8.

Garlic and Basil Chicken Thighs

8 chicken thighs
salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 large onion, diced
1/4 c fresh basil, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped
1 1/2 c chicken broth
3 c carrots, diced
1 c mushrooms, quartered

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Place chicken in 9x13 baking dish. Sprinkle both sides of each thigh generously with salt and pepper. Top with onion, basil, garlic, rosemary, chicken broth, carrots and mushrooms. Cover with aluminum foil.
3. Bake in preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink, about 1 hour. Remove foil and bake until tops of chicken are browned, about 15 minutes more.
