Healthy Lemon Chicken With Potatoes & Beans!

Happy Wednesday!

Who's enjoying seeing all the photos of the Duke and Duchess's visit to Poland & Germany? The little kids are stealing the show. Kate does appear too thin in the red flowing tule gown she wore today. The style didn't exactly suit her but I am not a fan of off shouldered anything! It's a style that has gone out of fashion a long time ago. It might come back in 5 years :)

The news all over the press was the release of the BBC's highest paid stars.. totally utter madness that was, how do they even justify those salaries? But that the talk was was more about how little the women earn in comparison to the men shows that it somehow seems fine they earn these absurd amounts! It seems we have gone back to the dark ages of inequality where the elite earn gold and the paupers crumbs! Disgraceful! We need Robin Hood to complete this medieval tale of corruption from all sides! Not a fan of Capitalism!

Today I want to share a favorite recipe of mine which I enjoy cooking for my kids, I learnt how to do it a long time ago and the kids love it and find it delicious. It's a one pot chicken dish our favorite meat! Lemon Garlic Chicken with Potatoes and beans.

Ingredients
4 chicken breasts halved
6 potatoes halved
Salt Pepper & Oil
Half a cup of whole milk
5 teaspoons of all purpose flour
1 1/2 cup of chicken stock
chopped parsley
a small packet of french beans 100 grms
mushrooms about 8 quartered
8 thin slices of lemon
4 pods of garlic

Get a frying pan on the hob , add 2 spoons of oil get it warm put in your chicken pieces with salt & pepper to taste with some parsley and the cloves of garlic get the chicken browned off . Now place the pan in the oven 200 c and bake for about 10 minutes till the chicken is done . Remove the chicken and keep the frying pan with all the good stuff in it .
Put the potatoes in a pan of water and lightly boil it for about 10 to 15 minutes .
Put the frying pan back on the hob throw in your potatoes and mushrooms and allow it to brown . In a small bowl combine your flour and milk and whisk . Now add it to your frying pan with salt and pepper lemon slices and the green beans and allow it to simmer till the beans are tender and its thicken up a bit . Add more parsley at the end . Serve this with some fresh green salad for a healthy light nutritious meal .
