Swing and a miss??

Okay, not all meals can be out of this world fantastic.... even me- the optimist knows this.  I try, I try... but sometimes they are just out of necessity to use up food so you aren't wasting. 

Tonight, I am calling our meal...

Use it Up Chicken

What you need:

• 1 package thin sliced chicken breast
• 1 package frozen corn
• 1 bag frozen prepared hashbrown cubes (I used Ore' Ida)
• salt to taste
• pepper to taste
• 1 tbsp. olive oil

Here's what you do:

• Heat olive oil in wok or large skillet over medium / high heat
• Cut chicken into cubes about 1 inch or smaller
• add chicken to olive oil and stir
• add salt
• add pepper
• Add 1/2 bag frozen corn and stir
• Add 1/2 bag frozen hash brown cubes and stir
• continue cooking for 20 - 30 min stirring occasionally or until chicken is cooked through
• add more salt and pepper if needed

Total prep time: 10min.
Total cook time: 30min (or until chicken is done and potatoes are heated through)
Servings: 4

Here's what I have to say about this meal.  It was okay.  Not my best, not my worst- used up the chicken that needed to be cooked and we ate it- we didn't go hungry tonight.  Actually my boyfriend said that it wasn't bad. 

I think what might have made it better was adding some kind of worstichire sauce or something while cooking, the chicken turned out a little bland.  I tend to not add enough salt- but love pepper so I added more.
Sometimes I am going to knock it out of the park, and sometimes I am going to swing and a miss... but the important part is that I am trying- my rolling pins and pearls are in the kitchen and I am trying... for me that is huge!

till next time, Me
