LXV Herbes de Jardin Spice Blend
A bright, aromatic French-style herb blend anchored by piney juniper, citrus undertones, and classic garden herbs. Formulated to withstand high heat, it infuses roasted carrots, chicken, and holiday poultry with a caramelized, herbal crust…
Chicken rubbed with Herbes de Jardin and roasted until deeply browned, brightened with lemon at the end. For Kunal's version, add a small splash of gin to the roasting pan before it goes into the oven.
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts or 4 chicken thighs
- 1 tbsp olive oil or softened butter
- 1½ tsp Herbes de Jardin
- ½ lemon
Method
- Heat the oven to 425°F.
- Pat the chicken dry.
- Rub all over with olive oil or softened butter.
- Sprinkle evenly with 1½ tsp Herbes de Jardin, pressing the herbs gently onto the surface.

- Roast until browned and cooked through: boneless breasts approximately 18–25 minutes, bone-in thighs approximately 30–40 minutes.
