Baked Chicken Dinner Better Healthier and oh so simple

Every day coming up with something to make for Dinner gets so complicated. So I simplified my dinner and my life and they are so much better! I am hoping you have a lot of the staples in your pantry already. If not I did add the photos below with current prices as of April 2025.

Today we are creating Baked Chicken, with frozen Normandy Veggies and Spinach Strawberry Salad. Let's do this.

Start with as many chicken thighs as needed for your family I use roughly 8 to 10 and freeze left over.

For Chicken: Skin on or Skinless

Pre-Heat oven to 375 or if you like the air fryer go for it.

place chicken in a baking pan, separate chicken so they are not crowded.

sprinkle chili powder generously over chicken skin on or skinless.

then sprinkle on some parsley

cover

Bake for 30 minutes

uncover bake uncovered until chicken gets the desired color. I aim for the coloring in the photo.

For Normandy Vegetables:

I use parchment paper on a cookie sheet

Melt a little smart balance butter Microwave or stove top

place frozen veggies on cookie sheet separate

Pour gently on top the butter

shake on some spices I use Webster vegetable seasoning

cover

bake 30 minutes at 375 from frozen

Uncover bake 10 to 15 minutes more

For the Strawberry Spinach Salad:

in a large bow add your spinach

add sliced and pre-washed strawberries

add white onion slivers

Add Glazed Pecans

I use Italian dressing or Olive oil and lemon or a dressing similar

Then add to your plates and enjoy. Enjoy your healthy meal.

The plate should have your hand palm amount of protein

And as many vegetables as you can handle.

We drink alkaline water from kroger, or Simply lemonade with frozen strawberries
