Easy Chicken Dinner




Last week I was SO tired but I needed to cook. I was low on the groceries and so uninspired -- so I threw the meal together and it ended up being a really great meal that was so easy to do. I'll have to remember this for the future when I am short on time.

Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees and put in --

1. a casserole dish with betty crocker au gratin potatoes (instant, but it was free!)
2. a casserole dish with asparagus, drizzled with olive oil, salt, and cracked pepper
3. a baking pan with chicken breasts seasoned with salt, cracked pepper, oregano, and a drizzle of lemon juice and olive oil

Soooo easy! And minimal dishes! Perfection, I tell you! Everything finished at different times, so you've got to be careful. My asparagus were tiny and thin so they only needed about 10 - 15 minutes roasting time. The potatoes I think were 20 minutes and the chicken about...half an hour or so? Definitely a repeat for a lazy weeknight.
