Day 28 / Lemon Chicken & Pan-Fried Chicken

Pan-Roasted Chicken Legs

I recently watched Food Inc. I always knew if I saw what really went on with factory farming that I'd probably become a vegetarian. However, part of the movie discussed some farms who are still doing it the right way (i.e. they let their animals eat things like grass, give them enough room to roam around, and don't stuff them with hormones...and actually let them see and feel the sun). It's a really informative documentary if you haven't looked.

Day 25 / Almond-Crusted Chicken & Sweet Ginger-Dijon Dressing

Day 25! The end is near. Chocolate is calling my name.

Almond-crusted chicken, salad, roasted veggies

Last week, I made a delicious meal with almond-crusted chicken, kale salad with bell peppers, avocado, and sweet ginger-dijon dressing, and roasted broccoli and cauliflower.

The almond-crusted chicken tenders recipe is here (thanks for the recommendation, Cristin!) I added some more salt, pepper, and Italian herbs into the almond meal. I sliced my chicken breasts fairly thin, so I should have lowered the cooking time. Otherwise, it's really tasty! I ended up cutting the chicken and tossed it in my salad, and the flavors of avocado, the dressing, and crunchy almond chicken was great.

This dressing is deliiiicious. I wish I had doubled it!
