Simplest Dinner EVER :)

Who doesn't love a super simple EASY meal? .. I don't think anyone! Especially during the week. We all know the daily grind ALL tooo welll and sometimes it seems much easier to go out and grab something for dinner, but .... here I come to the rescue :) In Twenty minutes you can have a super simple dinner that is much healthier than eating something processed that you order for take out.. 

So let's get started.. So Simple - only 4 ingredients plus salt and paper.. WOO

Start of with.....

2 Pieces of Chicken -- Be sure to buy the organic grass fed, I had these two pieces left over from some I got from the CSA this summer. 

1 Head of organic cauliflower

2 corn on the cobb - We have to fit this in before summer is over.. I always miss corn once the fall/winter comes :) 




And .. We need some seasoning.. I am not great at choosing seasoning, but I always go to the good old spice classics. I used seasoned salt for this recipe, Old Bay Seasoning also works GREAT! And of course our good old organic EVOO .. 

Prep the chicken first so you can put it aside and wash your hands .. All I did was sprinkle the season salt on both sides.. I didn't use olive oil or anything else, just seasoned salt... 

 Next, let's prep our corn, I LOVE cooking the corn this way, it can be done this way either on the grill or in the oven. All I do is season it with season salt and wrap it in tinfoil.. SUPER SIMPLE :)



Finally our cauliflower - YUMMY.. cut the cauliflower and toss with some EVOO salt and pepper.. 


Once you have all of your ingredients prepped.. heat up your grill.. This can be done in the oven as well.. I turn the heat up in the oven to around 400-450 when I do this recipe in the oven.. 

Put the corn on first and set a timer for 5 mins... When the time is up place the cauliflower on and spin the corn, set the timer for another 5 mins...turn the corn again and place the chicken on and set the timer for 5 more mins.. Finally, stir and turn the corn and flip the chicken for the last 5-6 mins.. This timing is pretty much on target.. it literally is exactly 20 mins and all of this is complete :) 

Below is your final product.. 

Yummy :) Serve with salad and cantaloupe .. This is super healthy and contains so many healthy vitamins and minerals and even protein.. No need for the extra carbs. Keep in mind I made this meal for two people, but feel free to double it for a family of four or triple it for a family of 6 :) Its so simple and literally is finished in a half hour max.. an AWESOME weeknight treat! Nothing crazy, super simple..

I can't wait to post upcoming fall recipes and in season fall foods! More to come soon!! 

Enjoy & Live Well xoxo
