Baked BBQ Chicken Breasts w/ Roasted Asparagus and Boiled New Potatoes

Dinner Tonight: Baked BBQ Chicken Breasts w/ Roasted Asparagus and Boiled New Potatoes




Started the morning off with one delicious and healthy Breakfast, I broke out the Turkey Goetta! I used Glier’s Turkey Goetta, my favorite. Sliced a few slices and fried those babies up, fried in Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Then I had a couple slices of Klosterman Wheat Bread, throw in my cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea and Breakfast is served! Near 90 degrees today and a bit humid, not quite as bad as it's been though. Had a lot of heavy rain early last night, some local flooding. Not much going on today, vacuumed and cleaned the house today. For dinner tonight I prepared Baked BBQ Chicken Breasts w/ Roasted Asparagus and Boiled New Potatoes






Came across a beautiful package of Simple Truth Thin Cut Chicken Breasts. Simple Truth is a Kroger Brand. I purchase the Chicken and Pork products both and really like the quality. So to make the Chicken I'll need; 3/4 cup Jack Daniel's Honey Smokehouse Barbecue Sauce and 4 Boneless Skinless Thin Cut Chicken Breasts. To prepare it it's very easy. I preheated the oven to 375°F. Poured BBQ Sauce over the Chicken in a 13x9-inch baking dish sprayed with Pam Cooking Spray. Baked for about 32 minutes, internal temperature of 165ºF. The baking time will vary according to the cut of Chicken your using and the size. Always cook Chicken until the Chicken is done (165ºF). Wow, the Chicken came out very moist and tender, with fantastic flavor from the Jack Daniel's Honey Smokehouse Barbecue Sauce.




Then for one side dish I prepared Roasted Asparagus. prepare the Asparagus I needed Extra Virgin
Olive Oil, Garlic (minced), Sea Salt, Freshly grated Black Peppercorn, Lemon Juice, and Shredded Parmesan Cheese. To prepare it; Rinse clean the asparagus. Break the tough ends off of the asparagus and discard. Lay the asparagus spears out in a single layer in a baking dish or a foil-covered roasting pan. Drizzle olive oil over the spears, roll the asparagus back and forth until they are all covered with a thin layer of olive oil. Sprinkle with minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Rub over the asparagus so that they are evenly seasoned. Place pan in the preheated 400 degree oven and roast for approximately 8-10 minutes, depending on how thick your asparagus spears are, until lightly browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Drizzle with a little fresh lemon juice and shredded Parm Cheese before serving.




Then I also prepared some Boiled New Potatoes. I cut the potatoes in half and boiled them in a small sauce pan until fork tender. When done I mashed the Potatoes up a bit with a fork. Then reseasoned them with the McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Black Peppercorn and topped with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. I also had a slice of Klosterman Wheat Bread. For dessert later a Healthy Choice Dark Fudge Swirl Frozen Greek Yogurt.
