Answer 1

take chicken thighs, sprinkle liberally with dried basil leaf and lawry's garlic salt, maybe a little lemon pepper too, bake on a shallow baking pan at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, then turn heat up to broil for 10 min to crisp the skin, serve with cornbread, green beans with bacon or ham in them, and mashed potatoes. if you use lemon pepper don't use the chicken juices in the pan, but if you dont, and just use the basil and garlic, the juices make killer gravy for the taters.

Answer 2

Try mild Sweet Potato curry with chicken- it's very healthy and easy to make and when I make it it all vanishes without any complaints. To make this you basically get yourself a mild curry paste and chop up the following nice and chunky

1 large sweet potato, 1 regular medium sized potato, a carrot, a few cauliflower florets. 2 skinless chicken breast fillets cut into chunks- you can also use leftover chicken. You can make it without chicken too, it tastes just as good without Also you can replace the chicken with a handful of red lentils which are very tasty and healthy

Pan fry the chicken without any curry paste on it. This will help maker sure the meat isnt too spicy which keeps the kids happy.

Now put all your chopped veg into a big pan raw and put in 1-2 desert spoons of mild curry paste and give it a good stir. Pataks balti paste is good. Open a can of chopped tomato and put that in with it's juice, top it up with a little bit of water and put it on a medium heat. After 15 minutes simmering add the chicken and more water if needed or you could put in so coconut milk if you like that. Leave it with the lid on on a low heat for around 25-30 minutes or until all of the vegetables have softened. You can put a few cardomom pods for an aromatic taste

You can serve this with rice of course, but it's also good on it's own with some naan or pitta bread. I even hide spinach in it and the kids just yum it up oblivious to the fact.

Lasagne is really nice if you replace the mince with chicken. And I make a damn good lasagne. If you like the idea, ask me for the recipe. (Completely homemade, even the bechamel sauce.)
