Delicious, Easy Dinner

0

I’m always on the lookout for a new recipe — one that is easy, fast, delicious, and at least somewhat healthy. I am obsessed with this chicken! It’s ready to go pretty quickly and has the most amazing flavor. I also love that I get a good serving of pasta with it with a delicious sauce that has a nice lemon tang to it. Put lemon on anything, and I’m there. Give this chicken recipe from the Pioneer Woman a try and you will be adding it in to your regular rotation.

I like to add green vegetables with this dish. Broccoli, asparagus, spinach maria, or salad are all great compliments to this dish.
