Healthy Lemon Chicken & Mixed Veggies

I love using lemons when cooking. Especially in the summer and springtime. Lemons have such a fresh taste! So tonight I had some lemons that I have been needing and wanting to use. When life gives you lemons, grab some fresh vegetables and some boneless skinless chicken!

What you will need:

1 Lemon
4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Tenderloins
2 Red Skinned Potatoes
Vegetables (I used broccoli and carrots)
1/2C Chopped Onions
Lemon Pepper (About 1TBS)
Salt and pepper to taste
11/2TBS Spectrum Grape Seed Oil** Check below for health benefits of Grape Seed Oil

Directions:

1) Preheat oven to 400.
2) Place 1TBS Grape Seed Oil and chicken in a skillet with lemon pepper seasoning. Cook one side of the chicken for about 5 minutes.
3) While your chicken is cooking on the skillet. Chop up the veggies of your choice and mix with 1/2 TBS of Grape Seed Oil. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper on top.
4) Take the chicken off of the skillet.
5) Place veggies on heated skillet for about 5 minutes. Stir.
6) Finally place your vegetables in a oven safe nonstick pan. Then place your chicken on top and squeeze your lemon on top of the chicken and vegetables. Cook at 400 for 40 minutes.

Enjoy!


Why Grape Seed Oil? Studies have shown that grape seed oil increases antioxidants in the blood stream. Grape seed oil also helps your skin and can reduce cellulite and is a healthier fat source than other types of cooking oil. Grape seed oil can prevent cancer and heart disease.
