This was dinner last night – chicken breast topped with zucchini, chilli and parmesan with a dollop of mashed potato and steamed baby beans and broccolini. The chilli is great to speed up your metabolism, chicken for your protein boost and to keep you feeling full and satisfied and low carb Carisma potatoes for potassium and steamed green beans and broccolini for vitamins A and C for your hair skin and nails.
Easy nutritious and delicious. I bought 1 chicken breast and sliced it in half which is plenty for two people and saves some $$. If you’re cooking for 4 or more buy 2 chicken breast fillets and slice length ways in half. You will only need about 10 mins prep and 30 mins cooking in the oven to have this on the table.
Make sure you double the quantities of all ingredients if you’re cooking for the family as this was based on two people and doggy leftovers for Zoe
