Protein and Seasonings
Vegetables and Grains
Instructions
- Season chicken well and cook until golden with juicy centers. Roast vegetables until tender with lightly crisp edges. Prepare grains until fluffy. Assemble plates with grains first, then add protein and vegetables. Serve immediately for softer textures or roast longer for extra crispness and richer flavor.
Notes
Cook vegetables briefly for softer bites or longer for crisp edges. Freeze cooked protein separately for future meals. Assemble just before serving to maintain texture. Customize flavors with spices, herbs, or sauces. Store leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to four days.
