Try a New Recipe

Sometimes I look at my list of 20 goals for 2020 and think, "Why did I make that a goal? I do that all the time!" That's particularly true for this goal: "Try a New Recipe." Being a wife and mom and living human being that enjoys good food, I cook a lot. That said, my cooking isn't always 5-star, and there has been more than one occasion where I've been "kicked out of the tent" or "Chopped." So I'm not an amazing chef, but I do want to improve. I guess that's where this goal came in. The writing between the lines on this one was a desire to not only find a new recipe, but find a new recipe that I can pull off multiple times in a row AND love. Well, I found one pretty quickly!

Copycat Longhorn Parmesan Crusted Chicken
by Stephanie (The Cozy Cook) 

This recipe takes some ahead of time prep that I'm not usually a fan of (i.e. marinating - ain't nobody got time for that!) But when I actually make a week-long meal plan, it's easy to put my chicken in the simple marinade the night before.

Simply put, this chicken is amazing, and my family loves it too! Definitely a keeper, and I'm definitely adding it to the rotation. And hopefully, tackling this recipe will give me further motivation and confidence to try more delicious-looking things that I might initially think are outside my wheelhouse. I'll just keep moving and keep improving!
