Oatmeal Breaded Baked Chicken!

Hello! I haven't posted in a while, well basically because I haven't really cooked. Brad's been doing most of the cooking on Fridays for Lent since I'm not really sure how to cook fish! We have very delicious steamed fish and veggies on the grill. Brad continues to impress me with his culinary skills. I definitely lucked out and got a guy who can and will cook, but also enjoys when I cook. I love it!

Saturday, we went to my parents for dinner and to watch Saving Mr. Banks. What an emotional movie! I was not expecting it to be that heavy, but it makes me want to read the books and explore more about P.L. Travers life!

Well as I said at the beginning, my mom is a big reason I cook the way I do. Of course, I'm not just a guest (neither is Brad), in the Mueller house, so she had both of us helping with dinner. I ended up taking over only because Brad didn't know where anything was located then again, neither do I..Mom moves stuff every 3 months or so!

I told her about the 21 day fix which I officially started today, but it was good to have a few days of practice to see if I could actually handle it. (Get ready, I have some SUPER tasty recipes to talk about as I go through this 21 day journey!).

I sent her the list of stuff I can eat, so she made oatmeal breaded chicken and fish.




You start with a dish full of EVOO, and a dish of bread crumbs, oatmeal, cilantro, garlic, basil and parsley. Next you take your raw chicken (I also did the fish, with fresh ingredients), and dip it in the olive oil to coat it, then into the bread crumb seasoning. I used the extra seasoning to coat the chicken after it was on the tray. Put it in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. and Volia! A super healthy but delicious meal! :)



Until next time, I'm going to go enjoy some cucumbers, carrots and hummus! mmm mm.
