The weather has been extra wacky lately in Austin, which continued today with a high of 63 leading to an ice storm tomorrow. It’s nice to have meals that work no matter the weather. Last night’s meal was a perfect example of that. I made the Central Park Garlic Chicken with a side of pasta and salad. It was a very simple meal and the thing that took the longest was boiling the water for the pasta. Once the pasta was cooking, I got to work on the chicken. I toasted the parmesan mixture in a skillet for about 2-3 minutes and then set it aside. Next, I cooked the chicken breasts over medium heat for 6 minutes on each side. I plated the chicken with pasta and sprinkled it with the parmesan mix. I liked that it was such a simple meal. However, it may have been a little too simple. The chicken was tender and cooked to perfection, but wasn’t as flavorful as many of the other Dream Dinners meals. I think that I will probably cut up the leftover chicken for a salad. This meal was good, but definitely not my favorite Dream Dinners meal.
