Sometimes I use chicken when I want to reduce carbohydrates in my diet, so this time I made a simple chicken roast with herbs. If there is low-priced chicken at a grocery store, I buy a family pack and remove the fat and cut it into a suitable size. Season with herbs, salt and pepper. Do you want to remove the bad chicken smell? Use lemon juice, it removes the chicken smell. Usually, a family pack is about 3-4 lb, so it is more than enough for my family. In my case, I freeze the amount I need for each meal in a ziploc bag. Then I defrost what I need for my husband's lunch or a simple chicken salad for me.
Today, I am going to make a simple dinner!
