Last night's dinner was pretty good. It was an adaptation of beer braised chicken breasts and I combined different recipes for it to make it my own. Here's how I did it (sorry if the measurements aren't exact- I rarely measure and do it according to taste)
2 boneless and thawed chicken breasts
2 red skinned potatoes, cut into bite sized chunks
1 12 oz. ale beer (any brand)
1 cup frozen pearl onions
About a tablespoon of Dijon mustard
About 1-2 teaspoons fresh thyme, coarsely chopped
About 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
Spray a large pot with cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil
Heat pot over medium high heat
Add potatoes and cook until lightly browned and slightly soft
Add beer, onions, mustard, thyme, parsley, chicken, and plenty of salt and pepper to taste, and stir
Make sure that the chicken is submerged in the liquid and simmer (covered) until chicken and potatoes are cooked (about 15-20 min).
It's an easy weeknight meal and quite tasty. This version only serves 2 since I only cook for my husband and myself.
