Chicken and veggies...

Today was a boring night. I had a few potatoes (russet and yams) left over from making my son's baby food, and chicken in the freezer. I just grabed some Kale and spinach and here is what I made...

I started by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into wedges. I used two different pans to boil the different potatoes. Boil till fork tender.

In an oven proof skillet, I warmed up 1/4 c of canola oil on the stove top till it was poppin hot. Place the two organic chicken breasts in the pan. (You can also do this with half a chicken, put skin down). Season with salt and pepper. Place in a 500 degree oven for 12-15 mins.

On cookie sheet place the drained yams. Mix with canola oil, dried italian seasonings, dried rosemary, salt and pepper. Roast in oven with the chicken for 10 of the minutes.

Drain the other potatoes and mash with butter, milk, salt and pepper for mashed potatoes.

Wash Kale and Spinach and place in saute pan with canola oil and salt and pepper. Cook on medium till it wilts.

To serve, place mash potatoes on plate. Put the chicken breast on top. Place yams and kale on side.

Easy, good. Sorry no pictures of this. Just a quick dinner idea:)
