    Herbed Goat Cheese Chicken

    Y’all. This is divine.

    Seriously…we all polished our plates. And I had to hide the extra piece I made so we could have it for lunch. Except Steve found it and took it for his lunch…knowing full well I wanted some for leftovers too. I teased him about it…and decided that this might become a weekly ‘chicken and rice’ meal for us. This one is definite a ‘budget gourmet’ chicken and rice dish.

    Took me about 9 minutes to get this into the oven. (Watch the cooking demo here.) Even with a baby sitting on my lap part of the time.

    Kids loved this one. Husband loved this one. I loved this one.

    Keeper.

    And in the video I kept calling it Herbed Goat Chicken…which would really make for an awkward dinner. Sorry about that. I blame all the little people running around my kitchen. Just keepin’ it real y’all.

    Also, note…I’m labeling this as dairy free as it has no cow’s milk. We have a few family members who cannot tolerate cow’s milk but do fine with goat cheese. FTW!

    Herbed Goat Cheese Chicken

    Prep Time10 minutes
    Cook Time1 hour
    Servings - 4 persons

    Ingredients 

    • 4 chicken breasts (I usually would do 2 or 3, depending on the size but wanted extra for lunch!)
    • Vinaigrette dressing, drizzles
    • Garlic powder, salt and pepper, sprinkled
    • 4 oz. goat cheese
    • 1 tsp dried basil
    • 1 tsp dried oregano
    • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
    • 1/2 tsp salt and pepper
    • 1 1/2 cups rice
    • 16 oz. frozen broccoli

    Instructions

    • Take goat cheese out of the fridge to bring it to room temp so it will soften.
    • Preheat oven to 350.
    • Drizzle some vinaigrette dressing in the bottom of a glass baking dish. Place the chicken breasts on top. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper.
    • In a small mixing bowl, combine the softened goat cheese with the basil, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Dollop and gently spread on top of the chicken breasts.
    • Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about an hour, or until the chicken is cooked through.
    • Prepare the rice as directed. I cooked ours in the rice cooker.
    • Prepare the frozen broccoli as directed.
    • Serve Herbed Goat Cheese Chicken with side of rice and broccoli or other veggie.

    I have a little problem. I cannot make a meal that costs more than $5. It’s unnatural, but my pocketbook thanks me.
