Apples Under Chicken

"What are these Chunks under My Chicken?"

Apples....
"You're trying to Trick me!"

  Why would you put them Under my Food?!"

Big Baby moves from his chair in the living room and brings his plate to the table.... sits down, pouting and picking the apples as far away from the rest of his food as possible....

They're just apples. It's not poison. Try it.

" You know I don't like Apple Pie! What makes you think I would Eat This?"

"The chicken's Good"

Oh yeah! The Chicken's Good!

Chicken With Apples

2Tbsp Butter
2Tbsp Olive Oil

Heat Pan, melt Butter and Olive Oil together.

Season Chicken with Salt, Pepper and 1Tbsp of your Favorite Seasoning ( I used Roasted Garlic and Herb. I like it :) )

Preheat oven to 375 Degrees.

Fry Chicken in hot pan until brown on both sides....



Remove Chicken from pan, set aside. Do Not Drain Pan.

Toss Apples into the pan you just fried the Chicken in and fry till just Tender Crisp, not mushy.



Place Apples in bottom of baking dish, place Chicken skin side up on top of Apples.



Bake for about 30 minutes or until juices run clear.

Burnt Out!

Oh my gosh! You Burnt the Chicken!

Burnt Chicken!

Just kidding! well not really. I did burn it on purpose! And it is delicious! This is the meal that was made after Easter.

This is Easter and this is why I just did not feel like cooking!

Cake and Candy!

Jabba the Hut!
 I google searched cute Easter cake ideas and found ideas similar to this, but apparently Someone, I don't know who exactly was overheard laughing and calling it "Jabba the Hut" Sheesh people... really? I worked hard on that cake!
Best Cupcakes! Made by my DD!

These are just sooo addicting! Really.... my hand would not stop picking them up and putting them in my mouth! Yum! Thanks Sweetie!

Now.... The Mess!


Half Eaten Ham!

Mashed!


Ham. Game Hens, Mashed Potatoes, gravy, Deviled Eggs(Thanks Mom!), Salad, Vegetables, Applesauce....

Cooking cleaning and cleaning some more....
Man, I'm Tired!

Brings us back to...

Burnt Chicken!

So easy to make:

Mix together
1/2 cup Melted Butter
1/2 cup Oil ( I used Olive)
1/2 cup Chicken Broth
1 TBSP of your Favorite Seasoning. ( I used Roasted Garlic and Herb Seasoning)

Drench your chicken ( I used Chicken Thighs) or maybe you can marinate, but I didn't.
Place on broiler pan, Skin side Down
Broil until dark brown, making sure to spoon mixture over to keep chicken moist. Takes about 20 minutes or so...unless your forget and set your oven on fire like I did! No! No! No! I'm just Kidding!
Flip your chicken and do the same until it looks "Burnt"

Microwave everything else. Like the vegetables and potato. Or whatever you want to eat with it!
