I
love feeling smart. A busy lifestyle makes it difficult to actually
make a dinner you want to eat. But with a little pre-planning, dinner
can cook itself while you spend your day in meetings, con-calls and
glazing over road maps & spreadsheets. It's called throwing
everything into a slow cooker when you leave in the morning and come
home to a dinner that's already cooked! Yesterday we slow cooked
rosemary garlic chicken. Damn, it was good.
Don's been in Pragmatic Marketing training all week, and I've been swamped at work myself. The idea of cooking up something from scratch when I got home was about as appealing as watching a season of Honey Boo Boo.
This is a fairly easy paleo diet dish and its easy it is to make:
Ingredients
8 cloves garlic, sliced
5-6 sprigs fresh rosemary, separated from the stem
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
3 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 Tbsp white wine (don't use anything old)
2 Tbsp water
2 lbs skinless, boneless organic chicken breasts
cooking spray (coconut oil preferred)
Directions
Spray slow cooker with the cooking spray. Mix all ingredients except the chicken in the slow cooker. Mix well. Add the chicken one piece at a time, making sure to turn each piece to cover. Cook on low for eight hours or high for four hours. Makes approximately 8 servings of 4 oz each. I usually prep and turn it on before I go to work and it is ready when I get home.
Add blanched carrots or broccoli, rubbed in olive oil and grilled for a few minutes on each side and viola, you've got yourself an easy, delicious meal. BONUS: this meal will avoids the whole "grocery bill too high" syndrome.
Healthy recipes are easier, and tastier than you think.
You can modify the recipe to your tastes and lifestyle. You can replace the protein with pork tenderloin of a beef brisket. What? you don't like garlic? Use shallots. Swap out rosemary with thyme. Its your dinner and we want you to experiment to find the flavors that work for you and your family. A recipe is simply a guideline, you make it what you want. But one rule to adhere to: cooking with healthy recipes are easy to do, once you make it a routine. And dammit, enjoy yourself - and have a glass of wine.
