Chicken Imperial

Yum

August 23, 2017 by Jodi + 2 Comments

This Chicken Imperial is amazing! So simple to make and the perfect dish to serve any night of the week. It will become a favorite!

My house is going to be so quiet today. All my boys are back in school and I’m back to having the house to myself all day. I really will miss my boys, but I’m sure I’ll find something to keep me busy. I think a batch of chocolate chip cookies will be on the agenda today (oh wait, they’re on my agenda pretty much every day 😂).

Now about this chicken. Have you ever made something that was so simple to make that it completely took you by surprise how amazing it ended up being? That was totally this chicken.

There really isn’t anything fancy about the ingredient list, it’s just simple basic ingredients that turn into this incredibly delicious chicken.

It’s juicy, tender and so flavorful. I served it with some delicious rosemary butter potatoes (recipe coming soon) and it was seriously the most fabulous meal.
