Making a meal for yourself really doesn’t have to be a problem. All you need to do is plan you’re shopping and choose delicious ingredients. In reality, making meals for one person is the easiest thing possible. You need only a small amount of ingredients and this significantly cuts down the preparation time. This means that you have more time in front of the TV for your favorite sit-com. In fact, the following ultra easy chicken recipe will have you fed and happy long before your show begins.
Chicken is the ultimate meat option as it is healthy and contains all the fabulous nutrients you need. However, you do need to choose the right part. To be ultra smart choose the lean breast meat instead of thigh meat; you will consume much less fat and it takes much less time to cook. The best thing about chicken is that it goes with absolutely everything. So you can essentially throw together an impromptu dish with whatever you have in your store cupboard.
Try this great recipe to get started:
Chicken Parmesan
What you’ll need:
· One chicken breast, cut into strips
· An egg
· ¼ cup Parmesan cheese
· ½ cup dried breadcrumbs
· Salt and pepper, to taste
· ½ tsp garlic powder
· 1 tbsp olive oil
· 1 cup tomato sauce from a jar ·
½ cup grated mozzarella cheese
1. Preheat an oven to 400 F so that it heats up while you get on with the rest of the steps.
2. Take a small bowl and beat the egg
3. Take another bowl and mix together the breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and garlic powder.
4. Dunk the chicken strips in egg and then dip into the breadcrumb mix.
5. Fry the chicken strips in a skillet using the olive oil for around three minutes.
6. Take a baking dish and spread half of the tomato sauce at the bottom; place the chicken strips on top and then layer the remaining sauce over. Scatter over the grated mozzarella.
7. Bake in the oven for ten minutes till the cheese has melted completely. You now have a beautiful chicken dish fit for one hungry person.
As you can see, making a delicious dish for one person is a breeze. The most important thing to remember is to purchase high quality ingredients.
