Dinner and Dessert

Today I made 2 really fun things. First dinner:

Greek Chicken & Potatoes

1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 tbsp dried oregano
1 1/2 lbs boneless chicken breats
1 1/2 lbs potatoes (I used red potatoes)

Mix the lemon juice, chicken broth, olive oil, minced garlic, and dried oregano together in a rather container. Then add in the raw chicken. I would suggest a sealable container this was you can 100% contain the mix and raw chicken. (I am paranoid about raw chicken.)

Marinate this mix over night... If you are wanting to eat this recipe today then you need to marinate for at least 2 hours. I find that over night is best though.

To cook this mixture put all ingredients from container into a oven safe pot. I used my dutch oven for this. Cut up your potatoes in cubes and add to the pot. Bake for 60 minutes @ 350 degrees. 


Make sure to let the chicken cool before eating, it will be very hot. This is such a delicious meal, I even crave it from time to time. The best part is how juicy this chicken is. It just falls apart. 

Now onto dessert:

For dessert I made these conversational heart cookies I found on pintrest. They turned out really cute!
