Sour Cream and Chive Chicken with Herby Potatoes

Last night I ran out of most of the magical things I use to make food and I am on a pretty for reals diet right now. No more snacking, walking everywhere, and no excess butter. This is the toughest one. So I decided to try something new. I didn't do so well on the butter but I sure did walk my fucking ass off yesterday so I suppose it evens out.

Stuff You Need to Serve 2:
2 Potatoes (peeled)
2 Boneless Chicken Cutlets
Sour cream
Chives
Garlic (fuckin' minced)
Pam (for sprayin')
Any herb blend (I used Herbal Pizza Magic)
Parmesan and Roasted Garlic dressing

I chopped the potatoes into itty bits and tossed them around in a pan with healthy sprays of Pam and the herbs. You can throw salt/pepper/oregano/basil in there or cheese or whatever, it'll probably all taste good. I used this Pizza Magic junk one of the roommates keeps in the cupboard.

It looks ... like this.

It's a saltless blend of herbs and cheese so it tastes pretty fine on everything. You really can't fuck up herbs and cheese. I baked the now herbed-up potatoes at 475 degrees for 15 minutes. While those were in the oven I cut open the chicken breasts in the center and threw them in a pan with a little oil. I know I didn't tell you to have oil in the ingredient list but since you're fucking cooking I will assume you have oil. Any oil.

Let those get cooked around the outside and then throw some chopped chives and minced garlic in alongside them in the pan and cook those to a nice, soft texture. At this point I also poured a little Parmesan Garlic dressing into the cuts I made in the chicken to give them a little extra flavor. This is optional.

Keep everything steady at a medium heat or your chicken will burn outside and not cook inside. I stuffed the chives and garlic into the chicken slits (that sounds fucking horrible) and closed it off with a dollop of sour cream. Then, I covered the pan and let it chill for about ten minutes.

I also made garlic croissants from a Pillsbury tube. You can do that, too.

The last step is putting everything onto a plate and eating it.
