Herbed Chicken & Vegetables

The first time that I had this was at my friend's house. We were getting together with the kids and our moms. She made this chicken dish for the first time and I loved it and really wanted to make it at home for my family. I'm almost embarrassed to post it on here since it's not really a recipe but it was too good to not share.


Herbed Chicken & Vegetables

Ingredients
  • 2 medium all-purpose potatoes (about 1 lb.), thinly sliced
  • 2 medium carrots, sliced
  • 4 bone-in chicken breast halves (about 2 lbs.)*
  • 1 envelope Lipton® Recipe Secrets® Savory Herb with Garlic Soup Mix
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°. In broiler pan, without the rack, add potatoes and carrots; arrange chicken on top.
  2. Pour Lipton® Recipe Secrets® Savory Herb with Garlic Soup Mix blended with water and Olive Oil over chicken and vegetables.
  3. Bake uncovered 40 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked and vegetables are tender.
**This recipe can also be made in your slow cooker. I may try it that way but I would brown the chicken first and then add it to the slow cooker.

Ready to go into the oven


Just a bit overdone but still yummy.


My verdict: I liked it but I loved it at my friends house.

I used bone in chicken breasts like the recipe states but I wish I would have used boneless like Cecilia had. And I wish that I hadn't gotten distracted since I overcooked the chicken a bit and it was dry. I ended up using 2 envelopes of the mix because my bone in breasts were HUGE. I also used frozen sliced carrots since it was easier and I thought it looked nice with the ridges.
But since I know how good it could be I will absolutely be making this again.
