My Daughter and I are trying to eat more healthy so I thought I would share some pictures on Saturday's of what we've made.
Baked Chicken Thighs with Lentils and Sauteed Vegetables
What You Need:
2 Chicken Thighs
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Salt and Pepper
McCormick Roasted Garlic and Herb seasoning
McCormick Chipotle and Roasted Garlic seasoning
McCormick Montreal Chicken seasoning
1/2 Cup uncooked Lentils
1/2 tsp. Chicken Bullion powder
1 Carrot- sliced
1 Cup Broccoli florets
1 Cup Fresh spinach- chopped
10 Mushrooms- sliced
6 stalks of asparagus
No Calorie cooking spray
What To Do:
Add chicken thighs to a baking dish and sprinkle whatever seasonings you like to them. I wrote what seasonings I added above. Cook uncovered in a 350 degree oven for 1 hour.
Rinse the lentils under cold water. Add to a pot and add 1 cup of water. Add chicken bouillon powder and bring to a boil. Then turn temperature down to medium heat and cook uncovered for 20-30 minutes until done. Set aside. You can add a little salt to them at this point if you want to.
Spray a non stick pan with some cooking spray. Add vegetables, except for the spinach and saute over medium heat for 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add spinach and saute for 2 minutes until spinach is wilted. I added the same seasonings to the vegetables that I put on the chicken. I didn't put the amounts since I just sprinkle some on.
I put 1/2 Cup of cooked lentils on my plate and put some vegetables on top of them. I mixed it together to eat it. I like lentils mixed with vegetables but you don't have to do that.
