Lemon-Oregano Panko-Crusted Chicken
with baba ghanoush veggie plate
We love making panko-crusts to go on our proteins. This one is inspired by Mediterranean flavors and lends the perfect texture and boldness to plain ol' chicken breasts.
Smarts: We're doubling this chicken to make the perfect protein for an entree salad later this week.
