Italian-Herbed Chicken with Quinoa and Green Beans


Slow cooker required! This makes a difference on your energy bill at the end of the month too! Besides, in the heat of the summer, who wants to have the oven on? Enjoy!


To your slow cooker add:


- Boneless skinless chicken thighs- I used roughly 12 pcs.

- 2 tbsps flour

- Equal parts: oregano, basil, paprika, thyme, chili flakes.

- 1/2 cup dry white wine

- 1- 2 cups chicken stock (enough to cover the chicken)

- 1 bay leaf

- 1-2 sliced cloves of garlic

Salt and pepper


MIX WELL!


-----Cook on low for 6 hours----- cooking time may vary depending on your machine and quantity of chicken.


Your sides....


- Add your green beans to the chicken with roughly 45 minutes of cooking time remaining.


- Serve chicken on a bed of quinoa that was boiled in lightly salted water. This usually takes roughly 20-25 minutes, so you can time your meal right! (follow cooking instructions on package).


- Squish a fresh lemon on your meal before serving and be sure to use the sauce!!!



Healthy and Moolicious!
