a favorite meal

since I have been at home, I have been getting more creative with our meals. But one of our old favorites is still a current favorite. It is a simple meal too. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and lightly spray cookie sheet with a non stick spray. I use thin chicken breasts or chicken tenders. Place your chicken on the cookie sheet and sprinkle with basil, oregano, parsley and cilantro to taste.
Now, quarter potatoes (i use 2-3 depending on size) and put in large mixing bowl. add Dijon style mustard, olive oil, green onions, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper. again, this is to taste because some will like a lot or just a little of these ingredients. Mix these with your potatoes. Place the potatoes on the cookie sheet with your chicken.
Place in oven for 15 minutes. Turn your chicken and potatoes. Cook another 10-15 minutes. The thickness of your chicken will determine how long it will take to cook, but check every 10 -15 minutes so you don't dry out your chicken. Your potatoes may finished cooking first, IF your chicken is thick.
I usually steam some veggies or make mac & cheese to go with this.
Even Torie likes this meal!
