cook

i've decided i really want to learn how to be a good cook. cooking is always pretty fun and not too stressful and you always get to appriciate the end product when you get to eat it. it's also a good feeling when you can make something for someone else. i've decided i'm going to try to learn how to cook something new either once a week or once every two weeks. i wasn't going to tell anyone but i decided that if i kept it to myself i would never do it and now i have to do it or risk the chance of looking like a liar and a bum!



this week i'm going to try to make:

garlic chicken

4 large chicken breasts
2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil
4 minced garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground sage
1/2 teaspoon salt

preheat the oven to 425°f. rinse chickens and pat dry. place chicken in a shallow roasting pan, skin side up. in a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, oil, garlic, salt and sage. brush mixture on the chicken breasts.

bake for 35 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink. baste the chicken twice with the lemon and garlic mixture.
