They feel like chicken tonight!!


Here is one I cooked earlier!!!
Our latest guests phoned in advance of their arrival to ask if they could book for dinner on their first night. No problem. One other couple staying in the house have been opting for dinner every night, so there are four for dinner tonight. Being Sunday, and fish not being available, I ran some options by them and they said they felt like Chicken Tonight. What could be simpler than this tasty and succulent one pot supper. This morning I made a marinade and this evening all I had to do was prep the vegetables and add them to the chicken.Chuck it all in a roasting tray and 45 minutes later Bobs your uncle and chicken´s your dinner!!!
