Residual heat from the chicken melts the cheese so it oozes delectably overtop.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tsp chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 tsp each finely grated lemon rind and  lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper
  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups baby spinach, or arugula leaves
  • 4 oz Brie cheese or Camembert cheese, at room temperature

Preparation

In small bowl, whisk together oil, parsley, thyme, lemon rind and juice, salt and pepper; brush over chicken. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours; add 5 minutes to roasting time.)

Place chicken, skin side up, on foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Roast in 400°F (200°C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and no longer pink inside. Broil, watching carefully to avoid scorching, until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes.

Meanwhile, divide spinach among plates; top each with chicken. Cut cheese into quarters; place on chicken.
