Baked Chicken
Tonight another simple one for dinner. Baked chicken with roasted potatoes and green been cooked with onions and bacon seasoning. Simple, quick and only one pan in the oven for an hour for the chicken and potatoes. A small saute pan on the stovetop for the green beans.
Baked Chicken Thighs
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon sage leaves crushed
1 teaspoon majoram crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
8-10 chicken thighs, washed and excess fat removed
4 large red potaotes, scrubbed and cut into quarters
Mix all seasonings together and rub all over cleaned chicken, let sit about 1 hour to come to room temperature. Coat a sheet pan with a very light film of olive oil and place chicken on pan, place potatoes around chicken. Roast in a 400 degree oven for 45-60 minutes until chicken registers 165 degrees with a thermometer and the potatoes are crispy, turn potatoes over at the halfway mark to get them crisp all over.
Green Beans with Onion
2 cups frozen or fresh green beans (I used frozen tonight)
1/2 large onion diced
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon bacon flavored salt
Into a small sauce pan melt butter and then add diced onion, saute until the onion softens, add the green beans, salt and water. Cover the pan and cook for 5-10 minutes, depending on how crisp or soft you like your vegetables.
