Here’s a delicious and easy recipe for “Roasted” Garlic Chicken Skillet: Ingredients: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs) 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon butter (optional, for extra flavor) 6-8 garlic cloves, minced 1/2 cup chicken broth (low-sodium) 1/4 cup white wine (optional, or use more broth) 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or fresh thyme sprigs) 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (or fresh rosemary sprigs) Salt and pepper to taste 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional, for freshness) Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish) Instructions: 1. Prepare the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and dried thyme and rosemary. You can also add a little garlic powder for extra flavor if you’d like. 2. Cook the chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter (if using) over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. (If using thighs, cook for about 8-9 minutes per side, depending on thickness.) Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. 3. Make the garlic sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant but not burnt. Add the chicken broth and white wine (if using), stirring to deglaze the pan and loosen any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. 4. Simmer and infuse flavors: Let the broth simmer for about 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly and intensify the flavors. Stir in the lemon juice for a little brightness and season with salt and pepper to taste. 5. Return the chicken to the skillet: Place the cooked chicken breasts back into the skillet with the garlic sauce. Spoon some of the sauce over the chicken, then cover the skillet and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes to heat the chicken through and let the flavors meld together. 6. Serve: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately. The garlic sauce can be spooned over the chicken and any side dishes such as rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables. Tips: Make it creamy: If you prefer a creamy sauce, you can stir in 1/4 cup of heavy cream or coconut milk after the broth simmers and reduce. Add veggies: You can add vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers to the skillet before adding the chicken back to the pan for more flavor and nutrition. For a crispy crust: If you want a crispy skin on your chicken, sear it in the skillet first and then finish it off in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10-15 minutes. This “Roasted” Garlic Chicken Skillet is a quick and flavorful dish that combines juicy chicken with a rich, garlicky sauce – perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special meal!

Here’s a healthy recipe for an Avocado and Chicken Caprese Salad: Ingredients: 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (grilled or baked) 1 avocado, diced 2 cups mixed greens (e.g., spinach, arugula, or romaine) 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved 1/2 cup fresh mozzarella balls (bocconcini or ciliegine), drained 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking the chicken) 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar (for dressing) 1 teaspoon olive oil (for dressing) 1 teaspoon honey (optional, for a slightly sweet touch) 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder Salt and pepper to taste Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional) Instructions: 1. Cook the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from heat and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into thin strips or bite-sized pieces. 2. Prepare the salad ingredients: While the chicken is cooking, prepare the other ingredients. Dice the avocado, halve the cherry tomatoes, and drain the mozzarella balls. If using whole basil leaves, tear them into smaller pieces. 3. Make the dressing: In a small bowl or jar, combine 1 teaspoon of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and honey (if using). Stir or shake well to mix. 4. Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, avocado, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, and sliced chicken. 5. Dress the salad: Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine, ensuring the ingredients are well coated. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. 6. Serve: Garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve immediately. Enjoy as a main course or side dish! Tips: Grilled chicken option: For extra flavor, you can marinate the chicken in a mix of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs before grilling it. Add extra veggies: You can add cucumber slices or bell peppers for added crunch and nutrition. Make it dairy-free: If you prefer a dairy-free option, omit the mozzarella and substitute with extra avocado or a plant-based cheese. This Avocado and Chicken Caprese Salad is light, flavorful, and packed with healthy fats, making it a perfect option for a refreshing lunch or dinner!
