What could be better than garlic butter chicken? How about browned butter garlic chicken with rosemary and melted cheese? Sometimes you don’t need all the bells and whistles — you just need a few simple ingredients and a little know-how to make something delicious. And once you know how to make this, you’ll be making it all the time.
If you’re not partial to mozzarella or Romano cheese, you could substitute another cheese such as Parmesan, asiago or provolone. If you want to beef up this recipe a bit or you don’t feel like making any side dishes, add a few cubed potatoes. If you're worried the melted butter might spill out over the sides of the baking dish, use something deeper to bake it in, like a casserole dish.
