What’s the one ingredient you can use in a dish that will make it taste delicious no matter what? You have to have an ingredient like this on hand at all times, just in case you do what I did — walk away from the kitchen for a few minutes too long, and return to find the potatoes are cooked abso-freaking-lutely perfect, crisped to perfection, but the chicken could have used a couple minutes less time in the oven. Tough chicken. Ugh.
But I’m telling you, the creaminess of the goat cheese lent some of its amazingness to the chicken and did moisten it up a bit. So thankfully, there were no complaints and there wasn’t a bite of chicken left on anyone’s plate.
Today I'm sharing my first ever post for #WeekdaySupper, a group of us bloggers here to give you ideas for meals you can whip up any night of the week with easy-to-find ingredients.
