Super Easy Lemon Chicken

I recently bought some raw breaded chicken patties to try to convince myself to cook more. Having the chicken already prepared makes things so much easier! Even if you can't cook, this recipe is for you. Some instant mashed potatoes would go great with it but I was too lazy today. (Yes, I do know how easy instant potatoes are. I would much rather lay on the couch.)

Ingredients:
Raw Breaded Chicken Breast (Comes in the freezer section by the chicken nuggets)
Lemon Juice (Frozen, Fresh or Bottled. See Also: Making the Most of Fresh Lemons)

Directions:
Heat Oven to the temperature stated on the package of chicken.

Put the chicken on the cookie sheet. I really like the stone ones because you can't wash them.

Put the lemon juice on top of the chicken. If frozen, just set the cube on top. If bottled or fresh douse the entire top of the chicken.

Put in the oven and cook for as long as the package of chicken tells you. When you bring it out of the oven, cut it open to make sure that the chicken is cooked inside. It should be white not pink.
Can you tell I ate a piece before I took the picture? It was so good, I couldn't wait!

Chicken Italian Sandwich


I love a good sandwich. You know it's good when I have to post about it as I'm eating it! (See also: Chicken Salad Sandwich) Ohh it's good! SO amazing. Anyway... here's the recipe, or just the idea of it. I got the original recipe from What Meegan Makes and changed it up a bit to fit what I had on hand. Hers is probably better so go check it out here.

Ingredients:
(Can be adjusted to whatever you like/ what you have on hand!)

Cooking Oil
Bell Peppers (Mine were sliced and frozen, from the Market on the Move a few weeks ago)
Onions (Also chopped and frozen)
Chicken (Mine was already cooked and shredded, leftover from lemon chicken the other night. Did you know you could shred chicken in the kitchen aid?!? It's so easy!)
Montreal Chicken Seasoning
Bread (I was sad I only had cheap bread, but it was still delicious!)
Italian Dressing
Cheese (I used Mozzarella, sliced)
Tomato Slices

Directions:
Pour a small amount of cooking oil in a frying pan and saute your peppers and onions.

Meanwhile toast your bread, and spread some Italian dressing on it. Afterwards, put your sauteed vegetables onto your bread.

Heat chicken in the frying pan, season as much as you like. When heated/cooked thoroughly put it onto your bread as well.

Add cheese and tomato slices and enjoy! I finished eating mine mid-post and I really wish I had made two!

Fancy Sandwich Wraps


I used to work in Wal-mart's Deli, and at Quizno's. I loved both of those jobs, making sandwiches and stuff was fun. I can make an awesome sandwich, but today I made wraps. We made these at Wal-mart, they came in a pre-packaged deal that we put together and then sold. I'm not sure if they still sell them or what they call them there. They're really just wraps cut up into bite size pieces. They taste better that way, I don't know why.

Ingredients:
Tortillas
Lunch Meat
Dressing or Sauce
Sliced Cheese
Lettuce

The combination I used this time:
Roast Beef
Turkey
Zesty Italian Dressing
American Cheese
Iceberg Lettuce

Directions:
Put a drizzle of dressing going down the whole side of the tortilla. It usually spreads as you roll it. Look at the picture of my layout. I try to spread everything out evenly, so that each bite will taste just as delicious as the next. Cover your entire tortilla. Roll the tortilla towards the cheese and hold it tightly as you cut it. I usually just eat the ends after I cut them off, or set them aside to snack on later. I usually set the other rolls in the container I'm packing for lunch, or you can use toothpicks to hold them together on a plate. They are good for parties. They taste even better with really good meats and cheese, and interesting dressings.

Mix a plate of flour and your seasonings. Dip the chicken into the flour and make sure it is well coated. Heat 1/4 Cup of Cooking Oil in a frying pan, keep the heat at medium low.
