Of all the food I make, this is probably one of the items I cook the most. It’s easy to make and fairly good for you as well. It is easy

Ingredients:

1 fully thawed boneless skinless chicken breast.
1 tbsp butter or fake butter (for greasing the pan).
ground pepper
minced garlic
dried rosemary
dried chive

Place your chicken on your cutting board. Grind the pepper right over one side. Take a pinch of rosemary and in your hand break it apart releasing it’s flavor. Now sprinkle it over the chicken. Sprinkle dried chive flakes over it next.

Put the butter and garlic in the skillet, and put the skillet on medium low heat let the butter melt and coat the entire bottom of the skillet. Put the chicken in the skillet with the seasoned side down. Now repeat the same process on the unseasoned side, cover.

The larger the piece the longer it’ll take to cook, so wait 3-4 minutes and flip and repeat until it is cooked should take no longer then 8-10 minutes to cook one piece.

This is my first attempt at cooking a casserole. Not only is it my first attempt at cooking a casserole, it’s a completely original recipe.

1 cup carrots (cubed)
1 cup potatoes (cubed)
1 chicken cube breast
1 4.3oz package Knorr Pasta Sides “Chicken Flavor”.
1 package of buttermilk biscuit dough from your grocer’s cooler
pepper
salt (i use kosher salt)
dried rosemary
minced garlic (fresh or from a container).
milk
1 cup chicken broth (can be made from bullion)

Preheat the oven to 350.

Set a pot of water to boil. season with salt. Once boiling place the carrots and potatoes in the water. This is to get the cooking process started. Cook them for about 15 minutes while you cook the chicken below. (I learned the hard way they won’t cook enough in the oven alone. You could try making smaller cubes mine were kind o big, but I thought small enough to cook in the oven). In the end the flavors were there, the veggies just needed longer to cook. Hence the boiling addition which isn’t tested, but should work.

Place 1tbsp butter in a skillet, and place on high heat. place cubed chicken breast in the skillet, season with fresh ground black pepper, a pinch of salt. 1 pinch of rosemary (make sure you break it to release the flavor. Cook chicken until cooked all the way through.

While cooking the chicken mix the potatoes and carrots into your casserole dish. Season with pepper. Once the chicken is cooked add that to the mixture, and thoroughly mix together. Now add the package of noodles. Make sure to mix them in so they are through out the casserole. Add your 1/2 cup of milk, and the chicken broth (the noodle mix is our binder). 2 tblsp of butter on top of the noodles. (just cut it up and place it randomly so it sinks in.)

Lastly take the biscuits and lay them on top of the entire thing until they cover it entirely by biscuits. Place on the cover and put in the oven for 30 minutes.

Once 35 minutes is over remove the cover so the buscuits can brown properly

Let cook for 10 more minutes turning the heat up to 400F to allow browning of the biscuits. It may not take a full 10 minutes to brown.
