Skillet Chicken and Vegetable Parmesean

Oh my god, what an amazing recipe.  I was looking for something that would get all the major stuff in a single dish and I found it.  It has veggies and chicken and GARLIC.  And what is up with Kraft pushing is Light Zesty Italian Dressing.  It is like aliens are using it to slowly take over our minds and make us sterile for the take over.  Any who, still a great recipe and way to quick.

Origin:  www.kraft.com

Ingredients:
  • 1/4 cup Kraft Light Zesty Italian Dressing
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 4 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1tsp. dried basil leaves
  • 1/4tsp. black pepper
  • 1pkg. (10oz) frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
  • 2 Tbsp Kraft Grated Parmesean Cheese
Directions:
  1. Mixed dressin and garlic in large Skillet
  2. Cood on medium heat for 1min.
  3. Add chicken and season with 3/4tsp of basil and pepper
  4. Cook 4 to 5 min on each side or until chicken is cooked through.
  5. Add vegetables to skillet, sprinle with remaining basil.
  6. Cook 2 to 3 min or until vegetables are heated.
  7. Sprinkle with cheese.
Once again no Kraft products were harmed (or used) in the making of this recipe.  Old standbys from Aldi and Food Lion made their way in and made it fantastic.  A couple of other deviations.  I used a 16oz bag of frozen California Medley Vegetables and much more than 2 tablespoons of Parmesan Cheese was used.  Rae had a fit and said that this makes the book and the blog so here it is.  From the burner being turned on to serving it up took about 20 minutes which is faster than some mac'n cheese.  This may make a more regular appearance on the weekly menu.
