Simply Baked Chicken
Dinner ideas can be so frustrating. I mean we need to think about dinner EVERY NIGHT. It's kind of like laundry. The cycle never ends.
Which is why I think there is nothing better than keeping some basic meals in mind for the nights you just don't want to think.
On those nights, this simply baked chicken is my best friend. This recipe is fool proof and as long as you have chicken and breadcrumbs on hand I promise it will taste good. Go head and giver a try!
