My love for Trader Joe's continues. I'm going to share an oldie but goodie that we've been enjoying over the years.
We tend to eat a lot of chicken in this household, mostly baked or grilled. So I justify throwing in some yummy breaded chicken once in a while, because it's not like we have it all that often. In the freezer section, over by their chicken products, Trader Joe's offers a bag of breaded chicken ready to be popped in the oven that is oh-so-delish. Pair it up with some of their sweet potato fries (what?! you haven't tried them?! you must!), and a veggie of your choice (we tend to love broccoli in this household), and you've got yourself a great meal that's easy to put together after a long day.
This is all you'll need:
Give the sweet potato fries a head start in the oven. Pop them in at 425 degrees for 5 minutes:
Then put in the chicken and dial another 20 minutes on the timer:
When you've got about 5 minutes left on the timer, snip the corner of the broccoli bag and microwave it for 3 1/2 minutes. They'll be softer, but have nice deep color and crunch to them. Put the broccoli in a bowl with a pat of butter, some salt & pepper.
Even Jake loves this meal! (Actually, the sweet potato fries, notsomuch. I overdid it on the sweet potatoes when he was a baby. He's no longer their biggest fan.)
Easy peasy, right?!
