No holiday weight gain for me! I loved the name of this recipe I found on RecipeZaar, by HouseManager. She called it “The [...] Orange Crumbed Baked Chicken with Sweet Potatoes and Green Beans I adore chicken. I can eat chicken in any way, shape, or form. Specifically, I love baked or grilled chicken.

I love the warmth the cinnamon adds [...] Crispy and Tender Oregano and Lemon Chicken Legs Yet another recipe from Bon Appetit that is so easy to make, and yet packs the best flavor. I only marinaded this chicken for 30 minutes, yet you could still taste that wonderful, fresh oregano throughout the meat.
