This is a recipe we've been planning on sharing with you for a while now. We first came across this chicken recipe on Pinterest, and it was literally called "The Perfect Chicken". We can no longer find it ANYWHERE online, and our pin won't take us to it anymore, but luckily it's so simple and we make it so often that we have the recipe memorized :)...and we wanted to #sharethegoodness and get it back out there in the Pinterest world!
This chicken tastes so good just by itself, served with our famous salad, or with corn on the cob and watermelon in the summer (mouth.watering). But we also love making this whenever a recipe calls for chicken - in pastas, soups, enchiladas - you name it! The flavoring from the spices is just perfect, and this chicken, when cooked correctly, is so juicy and yummy, and can pretty much go in/with anything. This is also a super low calorie way of cooking chicken...win-win!
Ingredients:
1 tsp. of each spice below (if you like spicy things, you can add in 1/4 tsp. of cayenne too!)
Mix spices together in a small bowl
Coat chicken evenly
Cook chicken in a pan or dutch oven on the stove in a couple tablespoons of olive oil. Cook about two minutes on each side.
Next, put all the chicken back in an oven safe pan (this is where our Le Creuset dutch ovens come in handy), and cook in the oven at 350 for twenty minutes.
