One Skillet Lemon Chicken & Rice with Asparagus

April 3, 2017 Food + Recipes

During the week in The Daniels household,  it’s typically busy and non-stop. Who am I kidding? That’s our home every day of the week! I have found that in order to bring a bit of sanity to our world, either I need to do weekly meal prep, order takeout, or have a quick recipe that satisfies everyone. This recipe fills the later option and it never dissapoints. It’s fulfilling, delicious, and a great way to get your little ones to eat their veggies. Oh, and did I mention that it’s a one skillet meal (sometimes called “one pot meal”)? That means that there is only one skillet needed to prepare this full meal. If you’re anything like me, that puts this dish in my top tier recipe list. I’ll admit it, I’m a sucker for minimal cleanup. It gives you more time with the family or some “me” time, and that my friend, is priceless!
