One of my reasons for starting this blog is to increase my recipe repertoire. Tonight we tried a new dish – Lemon-Artichoke chicken from the January/February 2009 issue of Clean Eating magazine. I do not subscribe to this magazine, but have picked up a few of the issues. After searching the internet, I was able to find the recipe here.
We had some issues with the chicken smoking and almost setting off the fire alarm – next time I would not cook the chicken on medium to medium-high heat as the recipe called for, but on medium. Hopefully this will reduce the smoking.
Ready to eat
Come on – don’t you want to make this yourself…
My plate (we served this over whole wheat penne)
With some cucumber and orange pepper
And for dessert, two blondie cupcakes and some moo juice
Going Greener: I read this article today from the NY Times regarding the bill that is trying to prevent antibiotics used to spur animal growth in farm animals. Although lobbying by farm organizations will probably prevent this bill from being passed, it is an important step forward in reducing the amount of antibiotics in our food. What do you think of this bill? Do you think about it when you are eating meat?
I know I am more aware now after reading this article and will start looking for antibiotic free meat when shopping.
