Tasty Tuesdays: Garlic Lemon Chicken



Sunday afternoon, I found myself with less than an hour to get supper on the table, eat and rush off to my Church Council meeting. These are the days that Schwan's™ really saves my behind. While I prefer to buy fresh meats from the butcher, I don't always get out there, so I buy a few products from Schwan's to supplement our regular fare.

This is a dish I made up on a whim. It combines favorite ingredients with diced chicken breast. I'm not known for measuring anything, so I'm guessing on the ingredients (except the meat).

1 lb. Schwan's Diced Chicken Breast Meat (frozen)
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 tablespoon olive oil
  1. Heat olive oil in saute or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Add chicken, garlic, onion powder, and lemon juice. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  3. Add thyme and marjoram. Cook until chicken is heated all the way through.*

I served this with white rice and Green Giant® Whole Kernel Sweet Corn.

* You can also add all the ingredients at once and cook until the chicken is thoroughly heated.

Time Saving Tip: I steamed my rice before cooking the chicken. Though this meal doesn't create many used dishes or utensils, I washed what I could in between preparations, so that when I was ready to leave for church, all that was left to clean was the steaming pot.
