Welcome to the Lake District, where the food culture is as rich as the landscape. If you're looking for a culinary adventure, you've come to the right place. From artisanal cheeses to locally sourced meats, the Lake District is a foodie's paradise.
Speaking of meats, let's start with a classic dish that's always a crowd-pleaser: chicken. Here's a simple and delicious recipe for chicken that's sure to become a staple in your kitchen.
Easy Lemon Herb Chicken
Ingredients:
• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Instructions:
1. In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
2. Place the chicken in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight in the fridge for a stronger flavor.
3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
