1 Comments
My mom showed me how to make this. It was a firm favorite growing up. Its simple and so satisfying. I just love to eat it with a variety of veggies. I would usually have had it with spicy tomato spaghetti and veggies with white sauce. But since we are trying to make better choices I decided to make these with some wholewheat pasta with onions ans peppers and some roasted veg.


Ingredients:


  • Chicken cut into pieces, I used 4 legs and 4 thighs, removed all skin and trimmed any excess fat.
  • 3 cloves of Garlic, thinly sliced.
  • 1 sprig of Rosemary (I was out of fresh so used 1/2 tsp dried Rosemary)
  • salt to taste
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1 tbslp Coconut Oil
Method:

I heated my pot and added the rosemary, garlic and oil. As soon as the garlic started to change colour I added the  chicken pieces, salt and pepper, I stirred it thoroughly to ensure that it was as evenly seasoned. I then browned and sealed the chicken. You want it to have a beautiful roasted brown colour. You can then add some water and close the lid. steam the chicken until it is done. Seriously so easy but mmm! Yummy!!
