Her newest cookbook, How Easy Is That?, is a fantastic gift to put underneath the tree for that foodie on your list (well, except me...I just bought it!). Every recipe is super-easy and can be made with fresh ingredients readily available at your local grocery.
One of my new favorite recipes is her Lemon Chicken Breasts. I made this recently and couldn't believe how much flavor is infused into the juicy chicken breasts by just a few key ingredients: good olive oil, garlic, white wine (good enough to drink), lemons, fresh and dried herbs.
To accompany this delicious and easy weeknight chicken (which is way more than weeknight chicken), I roasted up some fingerling potatoes with the same herbs I used in the chicken and with an added bit of dill and parsley from the fridge.
I eat veggies with every meal (right, who am I kidding?!), so I whipped up a salad with some easy grated onion vinaigrette.
Check it out and let me know what you think!

Thanks for the shout out! I MUST try this chicken recipe...seriously, chicken thighs are my new fave. Cheap and tasty :-)
ReplyDeleteI love Ina too! And I bought one of her new cookbooks as a gift for my daughter and one for myself. Have you tried any other recipes from the cookbook that you really like??? Thanks for sharing!
