Oven-Baked Chicken and Vegetables in Foil
To make your evening meal go faster, prep these chicken and vegetable packets early in the day and refrigerate until it's time to pop in the oven. This cooking time will yield nicely done chicken and vegetables with a little texture. If you prefer your vegetables softer, use boneless, skinless chicken thighs, and cook about 15 minutes longer. For the summer, this recipe will also adapt to the grill—just be sure to use a grill thermostat for best results.
Loaded Potato Focaccia
There are few things in life I love more than a fully loaded potato with sour cream, scallions, lots of cheese, and crispy bacon. Add that on top of another fluffy carb, and I'm in heaven. This recipe was inspired by the famous Sally's Apizza, one of the most beloved makers of New Haven-style pizza. They have a Potato & Rosemary pie that I love. My take is a little more kid-friendly, thanks to the Cheddar cheese and bacon. The key is to cut the potatoes thinly and evenly so they have time to cook through in the oven. I like to cook this until the potatoes start to crisp a little on top, offering the best of both worlds: creamy and crunchy potatoes!
