We eat chicken several times a week. Sometimes there’s only so much chicken we can eat!!
If you’re on the 17 Day Diet, you know chicken is a pretty important protein source. It’s not the only one, but it is the main one.
The secret to NOT getting sick of plain old chicken every night is in the seasonings and spices you use.
If you’re looking to kick your chicken up a notch, look no further.
Here’s a great recipe that takes full advantage of a ton of herbs and a bit of cheese to make dinner a healthy, yet family-friendly meal.
