Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 1.04 kg before cooking, which is about 260 g per serving.
Steps
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200 °C) (200°C (400 °F)). Pat the chicken dry and place it in a baking dish or on a sheet pan.
Marinate the chicken with olive oil, grated Parmesan, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, lemon pepper seasoning, Italian seasoning, harissa, and chopped fresh parsley. Turn the chicken until evenly coated.
Prepare the garlic by slicing off the top of the garlic head so the cloves are exposed. Place it on a sheet of foil.
Drizzle the exposed garlic with olive oil, then season it with salt, black pepper, chili flakes, and Italian seasoning.
Wrap the garlic tightly in the foil and place it in the oven alongside the chicken. Roast both for about 30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches 165°F (74 °C) (74°C (165 °F)) internally and the garlic is soft and fragrant.
Remove the chicken from the oven and reserve the juices from the pan. Let the chicken rest briefly while making the sauce.
Squeeze the softened roasted garlic cloves from their skins into a bowl. Add olive oil, chopped parsley, grated Parmesan, light mayonnaise, and the reserved chicken juices.
Stir and mash the roasted garlic into the other ingredients until a smooth, creamy sauce forms. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Brush the roasted-garlic Parmesan sauce generously over the cooked chicken. Serve warm, with any remaining sauce alongside.
Notes
The transcript does not provide exact ingredient quantities, so amounts are practical estimates. Chicken breasts may be replaced with chicken tenders. Adjust harissa and chili flakes to your preferred heat level. Ensure the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) before serving.
