Just A Little Fast Dinner - McCormick Chicken & Carrots

Do you have an hour to cook dinner? No? Well how about ten minutes to prepare it and stick it in the oven, then can you come back and get it 45 minutes later? If you can, you have to check out this delicious and easy recipe.

Pick up some boneless chicken cutlets (Publix is my preference.) Check out the spices aisle, and over by where the shake and bake stuff is you can find McCormick Bag n' Season packets. Pick up the one for chicken (I use original, but there's a spicier version, too.) Don't forget veggies (I love using baby carrots, but you can also pick up some broccoli, cauliflower, potatoes, etc.)

Take the bag out of the packet and place it in a 13x9 inch pan. Put the oven on 350 to preheat. Take your chicken and season it with the packet seasoning (both sides.) Place chicken in the bag and  fill it with the veggies you want. Use remaining seasoning to sprinkle over the veggies and chicken. Loosely tie the bag up with the little black tie that comes with the pack and poke 4-6 small holes in the top of the bag.

Bake for 45-60 minutes (depending on how many veggies you have.) It's that easy! This is one of my favorite fast recipes, and it tastes great as leftovers. Oh, and did I mention this whole meal costs about $6.00?! Yummy, fast, AND affordable? Count me in!

P.S. This is a total carb friendly meal :)

Don't you just love my fancy dinner ware? ;)
