Baked Chicken

So I've never blogged on someone else's blog before, so this is pretty exciting! A dish that I really like is a recipe I found on Weight Watchers.com for baked chicken. Basically all I do is get a boneless skinless chicken breast, season it with salt and pepper and put it in a shallow baking dish. Then you pour just a small amount of olive oil on the top of each one. Next you get some rosemary and parsley and chop them very fine and sprinkle it on top. Finish it off with a little lemon juice, fresh or bottled. I pour a little chicken broth in the bottom of the pan so it doesn't burn. You bake it at 400 degrees for 30-35minutes. The chicken is always very flavorful and juicy! I don't know what the actual calorie count is but for weight watchers users it's 3 points per chicken breast. I like to make a garlic mashed potatoes as a side. I hear that the red potato is a bit healthier and I tend to use less butter/cheese when making garlic potatoes. I hope you like it!

Sounds yummy! I need to buy some rosemary, but other than that, these are ingredients I tend to usually have in stock. I will have to give it a whirl!
