How to make it
- Lightly drizzle chicken pieces with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning.
- Place pieces in a single layer in roasting pan, or similar(I use a cooling rack over a deep cookie sheet :) and bake at 425 for about 45 minutes, until juices are clear and chicken has reached 160-165. Let rest a few minutes before serving.
For Sauce
- In medium saucepan, melt butter and add shallots and garlic.
- Cook over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes, just until shallots begin to soften.
- Add stock, lemon juice and wine, reduce heat, and simmer until liquid is reduced by half, about 10-12 minutes.
- Add goats cheese and half and half and cook, stirring frequently, until sauce is thickening and cheese is melted.
- Add nutmeg, salt and pepper and stir, again.
- Remove from heat and add arugala.
- Serve sauce under or over chicken, as desired.
- *we liked it best under the chicken, and then each bite dipped in the sauce on the plate :)
