Ingredients
- 0.5 teaspoons dried rosemary
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder

Instructions

1
Mix rosemary, black pepper, salt, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, cardamom, and coriander together in a small bowl. Place chicken on a plate and season with spice mixture. Heat vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat until it starts to shimmer, 2 to 3 minutes. Add seasoned chicken to the pan and cook, covered, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip chicken over and cook, uncovered, until browned on the outside and no longer pink on the inside, 5 to 6 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Squeeze lemon juice over chicken and allow to cool 5 minutes. Slice into strips.

Divide cooked couscous between 4 bowls. Top with cooked chicken, tzatziki sauce, broccoli, onion, cucumber, tomatoes, olives, parsley, and feta cheese. Serve immediately or store in airtight containers to reheat later.

Perfect Cut-Out Cookie Dough
This recipe always comes out perfect. My toddlers and I make these often. I throw the dough together in the morning and let it sit in the fridge. I take it out at dinner time to let it warm just a bit, and we roll them out and ice them after for dessert. You use different flavors of extract and add spices. For fall, I use maple extract and add cinnamon and nutmeg. I use my mixer to prepare dough and it comes together super easy.
Creamy Bay Scallop Spaghetti
This scallop pasta dinner with a creamy sauce is fast and easy. I cook the scallops a bit longer than many chefs, but that gives the dish more flavor and they're still tender and moist. I think you'll agree, the sherry sauce benefits significantly from the longer cook time.
State Fair Pulled Pork and Cornbread Crouton Salad
This pulled pork and cornbread salad reminds me of hot summer nights at the state fair! It brings together smoky sweet pulled pork, crunchy cornbread croutons, and tangy pickled onions for a flavor explosion! What I love most is that it tastes like I spent hours in the kitchen instead of only about 30 minutes of hands-on time, using shortcuts like pre-cooked pulled pork and Jiffy mix.
