Recipe(tried): Lemon Pepper Chicken Breasts, Smashed Garlic Potatoes, Asparagus, Salad, and Fruit Parfait (serves 2)

Good Morning!

Rachel Ray has nothing on me! She can cook a meal and serve it in 30 minutes...well, I can do the same in 20 minutes! It takes exactly 20 minutes to make rice or potatoes. It's easy and this is how you do it...while the rice or the potatoes are cooking, you put the chicken in the oiled skillet with your ingredients and/or seasonings and cook. You also put your vegetables to cook, the bread in the oven and you busy yourself making the salad, you are multi-tasking by taking care that chicken does not burn as the delicious aromas waft all thru your kitchen! It's easy and anyone can do it! Enjoy!
