Chef's Note
For the best flavor, make sure to use fresh herbs rather than dried. You can also substitute chicken thighs for a juicier result. If cooking for picky eaters, you can omit the red pepper flakes. The chicken can also be baked at 400°F for 20-25 minutes if you don't have access to a grill.
