Peppercorn & Herb Chicken with Mushrooms, Harvest Blend & Basil Green Beans


Chicken: In a tiny bowl add some black peppercorn, rosemary, oregano, basil & salt - then mix all those dry ingredients well. Prepare your chicken breast and then add the mix on both sides and saute in a pan with olive oil (i tend to use garlic flavored olive oil 99% of the time) and brown both sides. Once both sides are brown add 1 tablespoon of butter (i use Smart Balance) and add sliced mushroom, chicken broth and 2 tablespoon of fresh cream and mix very well and cover. Cook until chicken is cooked through and sauce thickens (about 20 -30 minutes).

Harvest Blend is from trader joes and it consist of orzo (green & red), baby garbanzo bean & red quinoa. Bring water to boil and then add the desired amount. I season with salt, saffron and italian seasoning and a tiny bit of olive oil, then cover and watch it grow!

Green beans: Very easy, just wash green beans very well, add basil, salt, pepper and sliced garlic then bake for 30 minutes and wallah! Very yummy.
