Oregano Chicken

    My mom is a beef farmer's daughter, so I grew up with beef all the time. Eating chicken happened mainly when we went out and actually bought the chicken meat.
    I never knew or ventured to learn how my mom served chicken, because it was such a rarity, so I wanted to find a good one.


 Ingredients
     2 bone-in chicken breasts
     3/4 tsp garlic
     3/4 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
     1/2 tsp of dried oregano
     1 tbs of olive oil


 Directions
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees
    Rub chicken with garlic and sprinkle with lemon pepper and oregano.
    In a large skillet, over medium heat brown chicken, skin side down in oil for 5 minutes.
    Transfer chicken to shallow baking pan and bake for 30 minutes.
Changes I made!
   I lined the pan with foil, but outside that everything was the same and delicious.


Recipe comes from Taste of Home.

By the Cookbooks

Hello one and all,       Since living on my own, I've fostered a great love for cooking. It's how I show people I care, and I find great comfort in it.       Now, I have a friend who knows this about me and regularly buys me cookbooks as gifts, but I have never used them. I either ask family members for recipes or go online to for recipes. Pinterest has been my diet's best friend. Six cookbooks just sat there, waiting to have their creations made.       After a free weekend, I decided to dig into my 6 cookbooks and have found many new recipes I want to try.      The six cookbooks, all very different, but also represent a different part of my life.      I've picked recipes from:      1) The "I Don't Know How to Cook" Book, 2nd edition by Mary-Lane Kamberg.      2) The Book Lover's Cookbook by Shaunda Kennedy Wenger & Janet Kay Jensen.      3) 100 Perfect D...
